I am an Australian woman of 28 years, about to embark on a journey to County Clare in Ireland to commence a Masters of Fine Arts. A new life awaits!
I am also a Zenthai Shiatsu therapist (a beautiful bodywork modality that combines traditional therapies of Shiatsu and Thai massage, along with elements of Osteopathy and Remedial massage). It is my intention to offer this once settled in Clare. Hopefully I can offer you a treatment as exchange for your generosity of welcoming me into your home.

I am passionate about healthy food and 'breaking bread' with family and friends, about sharing quality time in nature, sharing hugs and smiles and utilising the platform of public sculpture and installation to affect positive change in our society.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What a wonderful means of connecting with local community and gaining an insight into quotidian life of another culture and populace. Travelling has become much less about visiting attractions and much more about connecting with people and with country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My upcoming journey of shedding everything that I know, everything familiar, everything and everyone I have loved, in search of something more in a foreign land, seems to be the greatest journey and achievement thus far...so fingers crossed ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Zenthai Shiatsu! Such a magical treatment to both offer and receive. It is my meditation, it connects me to intuition, it teaches me trust and the art of presence and deep listening, to connect with humility and to always give love. In return I hope you may feel a re-alignment, a grounding, a sense of peace and tranquility, balance and harmony.

It would also to share tales and dreams over a nourishing home-made meal with you.
