About Me

Hi,
I live, study and work in Sydney with a lifelong love of travelling and the cultural and educational insights it provides. I travel or host people every chance I get and love being around those I share things in common with.

Before sending a couch request, you need to know I do not live close to the city centre. There is a 25 minutes walk to get to the nearest train station then you need to catch a train which takes an hour to get to the central station.
If you like to stay at my place please give me a few days (at least) to organise my schedule. Make sure there are some photos with your profile, your profile is filled out and you have a few reviews as well.

My Philosophy: If someone does me a favour, I will greatly appreciate that and will try to return his/her favour.

Current Mission: Planning a trip to South America (i.e. no couch request until coming back please)

My Dream: Travelling to every single country in the world.

Quote: "Life Is Like Riding a Bicycle. To Keep Your Balance You Must Keep Moving". Albert Einstein

Dislikes: Not interested in talking about skin colour, religion, ethnic background and politics. Thanks for understanding.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Firstly, I love to meet people, learn about their everyday life and culture. Couch surfing is one of the best ways to achieve these goals specially if you are on a tight time schedule.
Secondly, There are people who love to travel but can't afford hotels. I'm here to host them and show them how my city looks.
Lastly, making new friends from around the world is my absolute favourite part of travelling which can be better achieved via couch surfing.

Books: Mostly classical Novels such as "War and Peace", "Crime and Punishment", plus "One Hundred Years of Solitude".
