About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be the change you want to see in the world.

ABOUT ME

29 year old female. Training to be a doctor - nearly there! I am hoping to train to work in rural and remote medicine, and be involved in helping to better the standard of health and quality of life of those in Australia, and abroad.
Friends and family are very important to me. I love spending time with those most precious to me, but also meeting new an interesting people. Travel and languages are a real passion, as is cooking, and experiencing a culture through its food. I love that great food and great company so often go hand in hand.

PHILOSOPHY

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.
~Leo Buscaglia

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted couch surfers in the past as part of a group of people who lived in my house. As they currently away travelling or experiencing life in other lands, I am setting up my own profile.

I also love to tell people about the CS project, as it is such a great example of what a small group of like minded people can achieve when they work together.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted numerous people from: Italy, Sweden, Spain, France, USA and others. I have been offline for 12 mnths or so, looking to getting back into the swing of hosting again.
