ABOUT ME
:D ♥
I'm officially a rad appreciator of all things rad. (You don't have to go to school for that). I know that I'm accepting of who I am and try to be myself as much as possible without the bullshit that tries to hold you back from being your true self. I try to live honestly with patience, understanding, balance, kindness and love. I'm an optimist who believes in sharing positive energy by being friendly, enthusiastic and staying down to earth keeping in perspective just how amazing life can be if you let it :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
For future travels I hope to discover the special magic in each place that makes it special and its own, encounter those moments that make you feel that something that can never quite be expressed fully in words and share laughs, adventures and stories with some amazing people. I'm always open to meeting locals and travellers, any kind of beautiful soul that contributes to the overall beauty of this planet! :) I'm back in home town Melbourne - at present I'm unable to host surfers but if you want to hang out let me know and I may be available/you can join in whatever rads I'm doing! TUBULAR!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I'm still yet to have a large amount of couchsurfing experience, I've surfed a couple of times and have been to a few events. The people I have met through couchsurfing have been absolutely incredible, generous and full of kindness, positivity and awesome!
I made my first pals upon being fresh in London - Jess and Amy who are both absolute superstar beings and am eternally grateful to this community for seeding friendships.
The people I have already been lucky enough to meet makes me look forward to the future gems I can meet through couchsurfing :)
Interests
Many an interest, as we all do! Here's a few :)
♥ I love observing and participating in creativity of all kinds - art, illustration, cooking, photography, music and beyond! I ADORE listening and feeling music, it is essential. Which leads into DANCING to every kind of music in the spectrum - feeling it through movements!
♥ Swimming and lazing in the ocean, sea, rivers - any body of water that you can immerse yourself in!
♥ Walking and spending time in the natural world which we often forget to appreciate in its full wonder! Always feel at home ♥
♥ Observing and appreciating beautiful (which also includes not typically beautiful!) objects, places, people for what they are. AMAZING.
♥ Having a hoot of a time attending different kinds of music festivals, mostly the ones that have that all round positive collective feel and THE TUNES!
♥ Travelling (of course! :D ) I want to see and experience as much as I can on this amazeball of a globe.
♥ Eating and appreciating food. There's a whole lot of delicious out there. YUMM.
♥ Op-shopping! (Charity-shop/thrifting etc) It's so much fun searching and discovering second hand gold!

Music, Movies, and Books
♥ Movies: I'm not super up to date on films but I love - Fantasia, Napoleon Dynamite, Amelie, Fern Gully, Drop Dead Gorgeous, The Royal Tenenbaums, Hot Rod, Labyrinth.
♥ Music: Any kind of music that is pleasing to my mind. A few of my favourite bands/artists are - Burial, Aphex Twin, The Mars Volta, Massive Attack, Elliott Smith, Radiohead and Led Zeppelin. Dig psytrance! I LOVE DANCING - WE LOVE DANCING! To any kind of magic music that gets me in a dance trance, so therapeutic to have a good boogie!
♥ TV: Again not really down with the TV times but I will eternally love these - Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Arrested Development, Flight Of The Concords.
♥ Books: I have many a book to read but of course these classics are pretty classic - 1984, Animal Farm, The Picture Of Dorian Gray, The Doors Of Perception, Catcher In The Rye, On The Road, Brave New World, DMT: The Spirit Molecule ;)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The entire universe/life in general is pretty amazing! I'm very grateful for all of the beautiful experiences that I've encountered and shared with people. Everyday there is something amazing to be seen and done, the scale of it is irrelevant - it's all part of something that is off the charts in incredible. I think it's how you perceive it that matters of course, even in the dark.
One special memory among many is travelling to a forest, escaping the London city lights to view the Perseid meteor shower in August 2013. Enchanted by the night sky it was absolutely breathtaking, with countless sparkles blazing trails of radness! ♥ Every August it can be seen from the Northern Hemisphere, I recommend seeing it to anyone if they want a fix of a basic mind-blow from the cosmos!
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm always willing to learning from many sources, it's a constant in life that I am open to. I love learning those little things that life and people teach you, that can't always be explained but they emerge from experiences.
Specifically speaking! I would like to get off the lazy-language train and learn Spanish as my first non-English language! I would also like to relearn to sew and how to create music one day perhaps...
I can teach people who are uncomfortable with dancing to start free dancing and have fun with it! (No set steps involved, apart from a bit of interpretive animal moves)
Open to sharing conversation, an unlimited amount of laughs. And fun!
SHARING POSITIVE ENERGY MAAAAAAN :)
