CURRENT MISSION

Rounding up a 3 month tour in Nicaragua with Performers Without Borders. What a ride.
I enjoy the laughter that comes with adventure.

ABOUT ME

I'm a circus performer (clown/hula hoop) currently touring through central america and teaching kids. Lots of shows, lots of fun, lots of work, our little team of 7. I'm grateful.

Growth, good humour, circus stuff, and movement. I did a double degree then became an entertainer.

PHILOSOPHY

There are many directions to go. I used to think in binaries: back, or forward. Now I'm thinking of life as less of a 2-dimensional trajectory and more of an ambling, sprawling adventure. Or something

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have surfed with people in Scotland, Colombia and Ireland. Every time was different and wonderful. In Sydney we hosted some lovely folk, same with my current house in Melbourne, and soon I'll be passing through the States.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed in Bogota and Medellin in the last few weeks in Colombia. Also stayed with people in Glasgow, which was absolutely fantastic. And hosted a couple for a while in Sydney most recently and in Melbourne (current house). Hopefully lots more surfing to come :)

Interests

I love hula hooping, acro, clowning, performing in general (meaning off stage I'm super chill and down to have normal life chats without hype), hiking, and festivals. Doofs, as we call them in Australia. And indoor rock climbing is fun.
