About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Working on my future autobiography entitled "It seemed like a good idea at the time..."

ABOUT ME

I was born in Southampton, UK but grew up in Adelaide, Australia after my family decided to move back. I've been traveling by myself since I was 7 (unaccompanied minors throw your hands up) and in some subconscious child-like way got my love for travel and independent nature? I dunno who knows hahah. I'd like to think of myself as adventurous, outgoing, energetic, determined and up for a challenge! I definitely go stir crazy if I'm stuck in one place for too long haha. As most of the other people on CS I love meeting new people, travelling to new places and experiencing new cultures :)

PHILOSOPHY

Feel the fear and do it anyway.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined couch surfing because I saw it as an opportunity to socialise while au pairing in Girona, Spain. I attended the Monthly meeting and found everyone to be welcoming, friendly and full of interesting stories! It really opened my eyes to a unique way of experiencing a place and culture. I'm about to embark on a last trip around Europe before heading back to Australia at the end of June and would love to try couchsurfing properly!

Interests

Righto let's see.
Well let's start with travelling :) Closely followed by history, netball, volleyball, swimming, the beach, the pool, hiking, bicycle rides, motor bike rides, road trips, camping, dancing, socialising, eating, drinking, movies, music, staying in, going out, enjoying life in general!
