I'm working as a journalist in Sydney on a magazine for the farming community. In June 2019 I returned back from living abroad in Spain for the second time. I worked as an English teacher in a local school in a small village called Reinosa. As part of my studies I also lived abroad in Spain for 12 months during 2016. Throughout the European summer of that year I solo backpacked around Europe and met so many amazing and wonderful people along the way. I'm always open to meeting new people and learning a thing or two. Everyone has a story to tell.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and explore new cities and all the amazing things they have to teach me! Lets experience some personal growth and connection together!

Interests

I love to write! Getting all those feelings out on a page let's me delve deeper into this emotive life that we're all living and sharing. I also love the outdoors that promise the allure of adventure and beauty in nature. I especially love swimming in the ocean, camping in the bush and hiking in the mountains. In addition to this music, dancing and cooking make me feel all the feels. I am currently learning salsa and bachata.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love international film and music and have set myself a challenge to watch or listen to something from each country around the world. I'm always on the look out for new films and music, so please let me know of any gems you might have up your sleeve. I especially love traditional folk music from around the world.

I enjoy reading books about the natural sciences and ecology as well as social and cultural reflections. My favourite genre to read and write in is the personal essay or memoir.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2016 I rode a snow mobile in Rovaniemi and saw the Aurora Borealis! In 2018 I stayed in a tiny Romanian village called Botoşani made sarmarle and attended a traditional wedding.
