I'm a PhD student at the University of Sydney, Australia. I am researching the mechanisms underlying how cataracts form and how we can prevent them. In my spare time, I love reading books (especially those by Haruki Murakami), baking cookies, travelling the world, meeting new people and photography.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet new people and have an authentic local experience in new cities. I'm born and raised in Sydney, Australia and I would also like to share my knowledge of Sydney with others of all the top spots to visit.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite movie of all time is The Fifth Element (I am a huge Bruce Willis fan!). My favourite author is Haruki Murakami and my favourite book is The Wind-up Bird Chronicle. I really like the band Summer Salt.

I volunteered at an eye camp to provide eye care to remote villages in Dodoma, Tanzania.
