PHILOSOPHY

I am a very positive person and believe that it is your experiences that make you the person who you are. For me, these experiences are often obtained through traveling; meeting new people from different cultures and trying new activities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been traveling around Europe for the past couple of months with a friend from Australia, and with some Danish people who we met in Poland.

For the next couple of months, I am traveling alone and would like to fully immerse myself into the culture and everyday living from a locals perspective, and not only as a tourist who is neglected of the opportunity to experience real-living in towns around Europe.

I would like to share the exciting Australian culture with others who are interested and curious about the differences that are prevalent between living in Australia vs. living of Europe.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm Australian and engage in many physical activities such as golf, surfing, sailing, windsurfing, Australian football, cycling. I am always enthusiastic to teach people how to undertake any of these activities.

I have just completed a Bachelor of Commerce at The University of Melbourne (Accounting & Finance), and love providing assistance to anybody who needs help!

I also love entrepreneurship and strongly believe in pursuing ideas and concepts that people are passionate about. It's also a great way to allow yourself more freedom to travel- so always keen to share entrepreneurial experiences!
