About Me

Hi there!

I am a fairly adventurous, curious and friendly Australian. I was born and grew up all of my life in Victoria, Australia. Moving from a small coastal town to Melbourne when I was young. Sean was born in Adelaide and has lived in Sydney, Indonesia and Singapore before moving to Melbourne where he spent most of his time growing up.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To share, to discover and enjoy new experiences and meet great people!
Some of my best friends (Beth_Lauren) are Couchsurfers, they've been both hosts and guests in their travels. Beth and Lauren rave about what a great experience it is and the people they've been able to meet through Couchsurfing! They recently went back to New York for their now good friends wedding.

Interests

Food, nature, the outdoors (camping, hiking, snorkeling, snowboarding), meeting people, visiting markets, cooking, sports (Australian footy, volleyball), coffee (too much?), hanging out with friends and family.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Right now, Sean and I are on a pretty amazing adventure backpacking around the world for 12 months...it's the best decision we've ever made!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to improve my 'Spanglish', so I can speak with people in Espanol more and more!
I have travelled to many incredible places and will be going to a few more in years to come - so I'd love to hear your travel stories and tips and share a few of ours!

What I Can Share with Hosts

We are keen to enjoy a place the way a local would. We love to find out about and experience new places. Cafes, bars, restaurants, parks, walks and bike rides - to places just around the corner in your neighbourhood we wouldn't otherwise stumble across.

We both love to cook and eat delicious food. Who doesn't? It would be a pleasure to cook a meal for our host/s as a way of saying thanks and get to know each other a little better.

We are both clean, tidy and friendly people who respect other people's space and time. Sean has lived in a share house so he knows a thing or two about house etiquette and we've both stayed in many hostel dorms and know how not to act.
