Hi all, I'm Jaida. I'm a Journalism Student currently based in Melbourne, Australia. I'm a bass and guitar player of 11 years and absolutely adore music - live gigs and festivals are great fun. I'm very invested in politics and am quite the history buff - trivia is definitely appreciated. Love comedies, watching AFL - simple things really. Wouldn't be an About Me section without some reference to my love for nature and hiking! Will walk anywhere with a view - have a huge soft spot for mountains, rainforests, waterfalls and alpine lakes. Have an affinity for cold weather and tearooms, or both simultaneously. I'm a great cook, so I do bring something to the table :P

Ultimately believe I was put on this Earth to travel. I want to explore every city and crevice, or at least as many as I can in my lifetime.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd love to make new connections all around the world - can never have enough friends. I'm interested in learning everyone's backgrounds and their stories. Saving on accommodation also helps to make the most out of our trips.

More than happy to walk visitors of Melbourne around the city, or meet up for coffee!
