I'm a 21 year old backpacker about to travel to Melbourne, Australia on a holiday working visa. I'm looking for a friendly place to stay for a few nights while I get acquainted with the city and the Aussie way of life. I am currently applying to be a Charity Fundraiser because I think it's important to give back to good causes in any way you can.

I'm friendly, talkative and love meeting new people! I also really enjoy getting immersed in a different way of life. I'm easy going and low maintenance so won't be causing any problems.

Travelling has been my life since I finished university last July where I studied Economics. First I volunteered in Tanzania for a few months where I built a classroom floor, taught English and Maths to children, and helped out at orphanages in various communities. Then I traveled to Thailand over Christmas and New Year, this included insane Full Moon Parties on the beach, the culture of small jungle communities and everything Bangkok had to offer! Both of these experiences were incredible, and now I'm looking for the next adventure in Australia starting in Melbourne and working around to the East Coast.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swam with dolphins in Zanzibar! Such a mental experience being told to jump in at random intervals to get stung by jellyfish, but completely worth it to see a pod of dolphins underwater in their natural habitat

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always carrying a bunch of books - some fiction and some self development - maybe I'll have something you'll find interesting.

Lots of traveling knowledge and stories that I'd love to swap with your experiences and stories!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Positive energy and a fun time
