About Me

Taking a couple of gap years to travel and learn about the world and myself. Travel has completely changed my perspective on life and i'm so grateful for all of the amazing experiences and lessons i have endured.
I just spent 2.5 months travelling in Nepal, trekking and relaxing and 2 months in India enjoying all of the chai, chillum and chapati and practicing yoga. I completely fell in love with India and all of its colour, chaos and contrast.
I will be spending the next 3 or so months in the UK and Europe travelling around before going back to Australia. I don't usually make any plans, I generally just go with the flow and see where I end up.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Whilst travelling I want to authentically experience whatever country im in. I think the best way to do that is by surrounding yourself with locals instead of other travellers and by being in a home instead of a hostel. It seems like an interesting way to meet like minded people and I would love to host people once I'm back in Australia.
