`.• °☾ ● .

I'm a young Australian currently living in Sydney, studying International Relations. I absolutely love what I study and do, and I plan to work in the humanitarian sector in the future. I have a particular passion for working in refugee camps.

I love having interesting conversations and enjoy learning about other people's cultures and life experiences. As a generally flexible and easy-going person, I think we'll get along :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Having a "local's experience" of a new city is my aim whilst traveling. I love to meet new people and hear their stories.

Interests

Reading, dancing, traveling, film photography.

I'm interested in world affairs and other cultures, watching documentaries, unusual conversations, and tea.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

.waking up to sunrise in the Sahara Desert..

Teach, Learn, Share

I can offer to teach English and Spanish, world capitals, piano.

Learning is my priority in life, so share with me what you know! I'm really interested in other languages, so it'd be cool to be taught some new phrases and words.

And in turn I can share with you my laughter, listening skills, positive nature.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to feel like I'm a smiley person, and whilst being somewhat reserved, I have a lot of positive energy to offer :) I'm also a keen house helper, and won't use your home as a hostel!
