CURRENT MISSION

To meet new friends and explore new places.

ABOUT ME

Hmmm. It's hard describing yourself. I was born and grew up in Melbourne and like to think I know the city pretty well. I think I'll forever be a student... have studied fine Art, building design and now architecture. I'm almost done, but have taken time off to get some perspective, travel, focus on my friendships and make some money. SO... I work in a ballet shop doing a lot of their marketing and advertising, as well as a little retail (fitting ballet shoes and dressing little girls up like princesses) its a pretty rad job.

I'm a very creative, design-minded person. I love dance, art, architecture, design, music. I love meeting people on different creative journeys to me and collaborating with them in some way.

I absolutely adore my amazingly diverse group of friends in Melbourne, most of my hobbies revolve around seeing them play gigs in and around the city. I also love tattoos, skateboards, and bikes, and shoes with wheels. I'm not bad on a pair of quad skates, LOVE THE ROLLER DERBY.

SOME PEOPLE SAY MY BLOG IS LIKE THE INSIDE OF MY BEDROOM/BRAIN. So have a look and see if you like.

PHILOSOPHY

Just do it. Sounds cheesy but have no regrets.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COME AND SLEEP IN MY LOVELY BEDROOM... I HAVE FAIRY LIGHTS!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Most of my couch surfing experiences have been in Melbourne when I've been in a bad state to walk home, or just too cozy under a blanket with a cup of tea and good conversation at the end of a party to leave.

Hopefully I can collect a few more good stories OS.

Travel definitely tops the list of amazing things done and seen. I've travelled throughout south east asia (Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, and India), studied in Germany and travelled throughout Europe. I've got lots of stories to tell!

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I like to think I can show people a side of Melbourne that might take months of living here to discover, and I'd also love to share my amazing friends around.
I would love to learn about different cultures and hear about peoples travel stories. That's always fun.
