CURRENT MISSION

Living in Melbourne & working full time for a construction company. Therefore making trips when I can around the world, but mostly within Australia. I love Couchsurfing - it's such a brilliant opportunity to meet new & likeminded generous people whilst saving a little moolaa (however contributing where necessary/appropriate).

ABOUT ME

My name is Carolyn. I am Australian. I care about people & believe it is very important to see as much of the world as you can - plus value the lifelong friendships you make along the way.

My friends describe me as very happy & easy going person who is always laughing.

I prefer the country from the city - rural areas are my favourite & of course the coast/sea (where I grew up). But I equally enjoy visiting and living in overseas cities - Berlin being my favorite city in the world.

I am neat & tidy, respectful & a very happy/positive person.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat people the way you want to be treated.
