Overview
About Me
Hi, I’m a shy but adventurous soul and would like to meet new people. I enjoy connecting with and learning about people and how different and amazing everyone is with our own unique perspectives of the world. I have just about finished my nutrition degree which I’m studying at university in Perth, Western Australia. I hope to do honours and a PhD mixing nutrition and psychology/neuroscience in the future as I’m also quite passionate about those fields as well. I’m pretty friendly and easy going. My ideal night out is probably going to the beach with my dog on a warm summer night 🐕🌊 but I also enjoy more typical nights out, chill nights with friends, good music and food and drinks, as well and spending time around water, like the beach. I just really like the ocean. 🌊😂I’m also vegan 🌱 and enjoy making vegan food, especially with tempeh.

Music, Movies, and Books
I tend to read mostly uni related things these days, but a few books that I really like are Sophie's World, Astronomy for People in a Hurry, Man's Search for Meaning and The Secret Life of the Mind. I enjoy all types of movies, but the days of watching horror/thriller ones are gone I think and I can't watch anything to do with zombies due to watching my elder sister and my mum playing Zelda: Ocarina of Time when I was little :P.
For music I also like a lot of different styles from jazz to reggaeton to classical to drum and bass and house to indie and folk.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When I was younger I was very shy but I’ve always had an adventurous streak which led me to decide to book a 2 month solo trip to Dubai and Europe, much to the surprise of my family and friends. I had an amazing time and met some lovely people and reinforced my love of travel. One of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
Teach, Learn, Share
I play violin and viola 🎻 and also am reasonably good at cooking vegan food. I’m also allergic to gluten so all of my cooking is vegan and gluten free (and still yummy) :D
I’d love to learn more about different styles of music, meditation, psychology, neuroscience, and pretty much everything!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can cook yummy vegan food :) I also am happy to share my knowledge on nutrition, or anything else. I enjoy deep philosophical chats, so if you’re into that we will probably talk for ages 😂
