About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To offer to people the same as what I would like to be offered to me.

ABOUT ME

I'm a big fan of travelling, photography and music, but am firmly planted here in Brisbane for a while.

PHILOSOPHY

I have been lucky enough to have met great people while travelling and stayed in their homes. So I want to offer my home to give back what others have done for me. More than anything, I love to laugh and enjoy the company of people around me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I own a house with a spare room. It is open to couchsurfers in exchange for nothing more than some nice conversation! I also enjoy showing people around Brisbane - the city attractions, markets, festivals, shows, national parks, beaches.... anything!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have just started hosting couchsurfers, but my guestbook is already starting to fill up! I have already made good friends with CSers from Estonia, France, Taiwan, Germany and Sweden. There are so many nice people in this world.

Interests

I am really into photography and have a passion for playing music in my spare time. Love cooking and socialising (often together). I like to lead an active lifestyle.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've visited about 30 countries in my life, and plan to visit 100 more! Snorkelling in Oman, swimming with turtles in Barbados, winter swimming in the Dardenelles, scaling Cradle Mountain, kissing the Blarney Stone, walking through glaciers in Canada, stumbling through earthquakes in Vanuatu, skiing all of New Zealand, hiking the Great Wall, and many more...

Teach, Learn, Share

As well as helping you to learn about Brisbane, I am also a photographer and musician so if share similar interests, we could have a great time!
