Hi there :)

Love connecting with locals and experience authentically what their life embodies. These are the best years of our lives. Let's make it worth remembering! Lets do crazy, spontaneous things and see where the wind takes us.
If you can host me, please let me know! Even if you want to meet up or go on an adventure, I invite you to reach out. Looking forward to beautiful weather and good people :)

Recent hobbies I am passionate about include:
-Dancing - Jazz/Funk/Hiphop @ Sydney Dance Company, Tango, Contemporary (I am an amateur)
-Acting - Meisner Technique is what I am currently practicing for fun
-Writing - My form of creative self expression. I am inspired to challenge myself to use my skills for something more significant if an opportunity presents itself
-Hiking - Anything outdoors really. I’m a fish in water and gazelle on land.

I love to read and learn about new things and have intellectual conversations with new people. Mental and physical health are very important to me. I am selective and surround myself with people that are intelligent, driven, that have great energy and integrity. On a long list of goals, the current priority is to connect with individuals who feel aligned to make the world more unified.

The most important question to ask yourself (In conversation, engaged in a task, anytime):
"Is this the type of person I want to be?"

Places would love to visit are South America (Argentina and Columbia), Germany or Fiji. Some of favourite places I have travelled to are Montreal, Madrid, Paris, Bali, New York and Melbourne.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What a beautiful thing it is to meet a complete stranger and within no time they become a good friend. To share stories from my life and learn about each other’s stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love deep, meaningful conversation. I spend a lot of time self-reflecting and believe that I have a natural ability to listen to others and help them see things with a new perspective.

I am always laughing, having fun, pushing people out of their comfort zones. People often tell me they feel free when they are with me. They feel more confident and that I bring out a side that they love in themselves. That is what warms my heart. How can we add the most value to each other’s lives?
