We're a friendly couple that are always up for meeting new people. We enjoy trying new activities and getting to experience new things, we look forward to going to seeing different parts of the world as this has been our first experience in backpacking and travelling . Within the last four months we have travelled around Southeast Asia through Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia and now almost finished travelling the east coast of Australia. We've met so many nice people and look forward to sharing our travel experiences with others as well as hearing about theirs. We have been together for over 9 years now and got engaged in sydney and get on very well with each other as well as other people. We're definitely people's people and are always happy to hang around with others.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

We sold most of our belongings and moved out of our flat which we lived in together for over 4 years in order to travel and backpack for the first time, which we have always wanted to do. After our recent travels to Southeast Asia, we look forward to seeing Australia. Our plan whilst in Australia is to travel the East Coast starting in Melbourne and go up to Cairns within 8 weeks and then head to New Zealand.
One of the main reasons we want to couch surf is to meet other people, as a couple, we recently found out when talked to people while travelling that we could either buy or rent a car or camper-van and camp by ourselves but when we heard this we thought - the whole reason why we wanted to go travelling is not only to visit new, amazing places but also meet and interact with people (locals and other tourists) and get to experience how other people live, their traditions and different cultures. We're not really big party people and much prefer a quiet social night out to talk to people and have a laugh, maybe play some card games. We love animals, and consider them part of the family, Maya grew up with animals mainly dogs and cats.

Haven't found a genre of book that has got me hooked yet but still trying to find something that i will enjoy.

Likes listening to punk rock - pop punk, ska punk, a bit of heavier rock too. I usually like, action and drama movies but every now and then like to watch something cheesy and girly like a chic flick. I like to read Fantasy series like Harry Potter, His Dark Materials series and the Book of Dust.
