About Me

I quit my marketing job in Perth and have been solo travelling South and Central America for the last 8 months. Now, its time to take on New York City and try to find a job and live for a while.

I love the outdoors and have grown up near the beach all my life. I've also lived and worked in Canada on the ski slopes where I was a zipline tour guide and snowboarded every chance I got.

I enjoy meeting new friends, soaking up the culture of a city and finding a dancefloor any chance I get. But at the same time enjoy a night in of cooking, sharing stories, watching a great film or listening to new music with a glass of red wine just as much. 420 friendly also ;)

At the moment I cannot host but as soon as I set up my life in New York (or if i move back to Australia) I'm always happy to host!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There's nothing quite like meeting locals from the countries I'm visiting, and also other like-minded travelers. The people you meet while traveling are what makes your experience like no other. I've had three absolutely amazing couchsurfing experiences so far and cannot wait to have more!
