So far it has been amazing and I'm sure it will continue!

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Accept surfers when I have a couch and show them around Melbourne to make them see and love it like I do.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first surf was in Sweden on a island during a medieval festival which was obviously amazing. When i returned to Melbourne I hosted many people, 2 of which stayed at my house for 6 months and are now some of my best friends.

Interests

I enjoy music, live music and music festivals. I like to climb trees and play frisbee. I also enjoy fancy dress parties and dancing. Handstands are awesome, eating food is great especially with friends and wine while sitting on the floor. cheese.
