My name is Esme Fabry and I come from Adelaide, South Australia.

Firstly - I love to travel. It is my passion. I have travelled frequently during my life, and learn so much every time. I love to meet new people! I find it so exciting to learn about people's lives and cultures. I travelled across South-East Asia and Europe for most of last year. This year I am going to Japan for a month in November!

I am 20 and currently work at a little organic vegetable shop in the Adelaide Hills. I love working there because I love to support local businesses and organic produce. I have several regular customers who I love chatting with, and I am also very close with the other staff members. I also work as a babysitter looking after children of many ages. I have worked in a child care centre and absolutely love working with little ones! I have just completed a semester of Midwifery at Flinders University which was amazing but not the career for me. I am planning on studying psychology next year.

I am so excited to explore beautiful Japan and meet amazing people. I would love to be exposed to authentic Japanese culture and learn as much as I can.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I am really interested in learning the culture of countries through the locals. I would love to be able to see how people live in different places so I can learn about tradition and culture differences. I also love meeting new people and making friends, no matter what age/culture/religion or background. I am also travelling for a long period of time on a budget, so Couchsurfing would be a fantastic way to save some money.

Intereses

I love cooking, gardening, dancing, walking, nature, yoga, writing, art, photography, swimming, meeting people, exploring, learning and music! I love having projects and goals and I am passionate about seeing new and exciting things and meeting a range of people. Me and my partner are both vegan and love to cook! We are always making delicious meals for each other and our friends and family!

Algo increíble que he hecho

An amazing thing I have done was feed 500 hungry Vietnamese people living in poverty with healthy, vegan food.
I worked as a volunteer for a vegan restaurant in Danang called Karma Waters. They aimed to help a charity every month to battle poverty. It felt amazing to be a part of something so selfless.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

As I mentioned previously, I love to cook! I would be extremely happy to help with cooking meals for hosts. I am also happy to help around the house with cleaning and maintenance. Through my work at Organic Market I have learnt many skills in cleaning and organisation. I am a very flexible person who is willing to learn.

As well as this, I am very good with children. I have worked with babies and children throughout my life. I have had experience babysitting and working in a child care centre. I adore playing and teaching children and would be happy to take care or help out with little ones.

I am also able to help with language as I speak fluent English and am learning French. I would be happy to help hosts or hosts families learn English.

I am happy to learn any new skills as well. I generally pick up things quite quickly, and am eager to help with whatever you need :)
