About Me

I love learning about our big bad world! Be it through travel, music, sport, food or politics, I enjoy experiencing all the different things life has to offer. At university I studied International Relations and Korean which allowed me to live in South Korea and Taiwan where I met lots of awesome people, many of whom had seen more of Australia than me! This inspired me to travel more in my own backyard, which is what I'm doing now in my car.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people, share stories and have new experiences

Interests

I have always enjoyed learning languages (only Chinese and Korean to date!)
I love staying active and my favourite sports are soccer, hiking and most recently rock climbing.
I dabbled in drumming at school and now do Taiko (Japanese drumming)
My mind is always mulling over philosophical questions and I enjoy reading (currently Lentil as Anything)
I am also forever pondering what my next meal will be. I'm vegetarian and enjoy learning new styles of cooking
