About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To make the most out of every day, create things, make people happy
ABOUT ME
Growing up just outside of Melbourne, I've spent the last 2 1/2 years living in London which I sorely miss! I love to travel and had some great times touring through the UK and Ireland. I do theatre/music theatre and cabaret and have a great love of all kinds of music. I've been a vegetarian for many years and love making vegetarian feasts to share. I'm also a huge fan of baking and my chocolate pavlovas and scones have a few fans around the place!
PHILOSOPHY
You only live once so live with passion and love.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I surfed for about 7 weeks through Europe in 2010. I've since met up with a few surfers in Melbourne, but unfortunately haven't been able to host as yet due to living situations! I loved sharing some music, delicious food and unexpected adventures with my hosts.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Surfed in Croatia, France and England, meeting some amazing people who I surfed with, and some who I explored with when I already had places to stay. Wouldn't have missed it for the world!
