Hi! I'm Fiona - 23 year old Australian girl who has a serious case of wanderlust.

I consider myself easygoing with an open mind and always up for a laugh but also do love quiet time and chilling out! I love the great outdoors and am happiest when near the ocean or on the road (i.e., the feeling of going somewhere!).

Studying architecture in Melbourne but am about to embark on a bit of a euro trip - planning to travel before starting a six month exchange in Innsbruck, Austria.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

making new friends abroad, student budget travelling, not having to go through the endless cycle of hotel rooms or tour buses but actually meet locals and get to know the place as a local would!

Interests

swimming, sailing, running, hiking, scuba diving, snowboarding, cross country skiing

relaxing in the sun (or shade) with a good book or good company

Music, Movies, and Books

music taste is a weird eclectic mix of electronic, folk, alternative and acoustic

favourite book of all time is the Life of Pi by Yann Martel. beautifully narrated!

movies - I was raised on the Blues Brothers and James Bond films, but I love the colour, composition and writing of Wes Anderson films. I'm a bit of a sucker for the old rom-com as well (Bridget Jones basically sums up my life)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Wine or a cooked meal (or both!), impromptu dance parties and an enthusiasm for exploring cities, keeping neat and tidy and being grateful.
