CURRENT MISSION

Lol, to retain as many human characteristics as possible whilst finishing my degree!

ABOUT ME

GENIE

I seem to live more for my passions than my study/work :) However, I'm lucky enough to be studying a field that I actually like too.

I am not generally a morning person, but some of the things that I will get up for at any time are:

- languages. Love listening to them, learning bits of new ones, learning their origins... French is my particular favourite and has been for many years, however I am coming to the conclusion that I'll also give Spanish the time of day :P I like other languages too, but as yet don't know enough of them to pronounce definite opinions.

- rowing, of the scull variety (i.e. with two oars), however I've done sweeping too (i.e. single oar).

TOM

An Aussie keen to meet people from other places. I'm into scotch, ancient mythology and mountain-bike riding. I'll enjoy sharing a glass of wine or a beer with you looking out over Newcastle from our verandah.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted for some time in Townsville, and Tom and I surfed through a few countries in Europe.

I've hosted 'by proxy' with my housemate in Sydney too.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been hosting and surfing for a few years now! Always good experiences!..

Intereses

I will happily share food experiences!! Whether that involves making something at home, going for a meal at a local restaurant, or just cracking open a bottle of good wine with some cheese.

I love anyone who can impart knowledge about food and wine, whether it be preparation of them, consumption, where they are found in the world or how to best enjoy those two!
