Hi, I'm Christie :)

I'm a friendly, open-minded person with a large number of interests, ranging from music to languages to science. I live in sunny Brisbane, Australia - it's maybe not the biggest tourist destination, but I still think it's an alright place. I've travelled a bit and know how hard it is to meet locals and experience a place as they do, so feel free to send me a message if you're passing through! I sometimes have room at my house to host, but its dependent on a few things. I'd be more than happy though to share some local insights and show you around. I've hosted international students at my home for the last few years and really enjoy meeting people from around the world and seeing my hometown through new eyes. I also have two super cute dogs that you are very welcome to come snuggle if you're missing your pets back home!! :)

Look forward to hearing from you!
