About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore and discover as much of the European coastline possible this summer

ABOUT ME

I have been living in Perth dreaming of travelling for much too long!! This year I finally decided to bite the bullet and have booked a one-way ticket to the UK and Europe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently able to meet travellers for a drink and show them around Perth, including the best beaches. When I return from travelling I anticipate being able to host surfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not had any couchsurfing experiences YET :) although I hope to have at least one during my travels of Europe.

Interests

I love the beach, here in Perth you can find me there every day in Summer. I also enjoy reading, especially autobiographies and going to the movies. Perth is quite boring with regards to nightlife and clubs, but I do often go down to the pub or house parties if theyre on - generally during the festive season. I also love 80's rock music especially KISS....i am also an avid animal lover and am inspired by nature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have seen a water spout (tornado)in the ocean on an amazing stormy day in Perth. These are incredibly rare in Perth and seeing this made me decide that I would like to travel to the America (torndao alley) and see the real thing...although from a distance.
