About Me

I've decided to pull up stumps in beautiful Northern Rivers, NSW, and set off in the van on another blank-canvas expedition. The rough plan is to do a 18 month hot lap around Oz, or perhaps land on one of several options:
- find a new home and amazing work opportunities,
- just be a surf gypsy for a year,
- find a taco stand on a deserted surf break and realise I just died and went to heaven,
- some or all of the above
Though, mostly the plan is to just surf 'til I drop, and find new experiences that'll blow my hair back!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Here for soul chats, surf rats, and vibing off people getting super stoked! Would greatly appreciate any tips for the local area, hang out invites, and adventure amigos/amigas who wanna come hunting for beers, barrels, and awesome experiences
