Australian girl living out of a backpack for the past 6 months, traveling solo. Looking to learn as much as I can and meet as many wonderful people along the way :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm backpacking and on a super tight budget. I want to experience as much as I can while I'm over here and couch surfing offers me the ability to connect with locals and here their stories and understand better what life is like in their city while being able to save some money and travel for longer :)

Interests

My great love is exploring new cities with new friends. I don't like to plan to much, to leave room for the unknown and spontaneous. I love to listen to people's stories and learn about different people and their lives. I'm never one to shy away from a party and a drink either.

Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste is pretty varied, but I will forever love classic rock n roll- The Beatles, Johnny Cash, Elvis, Nirvana. Techno and house music is wonderful on a night out as well as bands like Muse, Blink 182 and Red Hot Chilli Peppers

I really enjoy documentaries, i like to be able to watch and learn.
Films such as Into the Wild, Enter the Void, The Beach and Fight Club are some of my favourites.

I don't read as often as I would like but the books that really stand out in my mind are-
Animal Farm- George Orwell
The Prophet- Kahlil Gibran
Siddhartha- Hermann Hesse
The Alchemist- Paulo Coelho
Power of Now- Eckhart Tolle
Eat, Pray, Love- Elizabeth Gilbert

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I came to Europe with a one way ticket and no plan. I felt drawn to learn a second language and found myself in Madrid for 2 months taking some Spanish lessons and soaking up the city.
