ABOUT ME

After many years of traveling, I've found myself living in Australia! Having two dogs means a little less travel for me, but I still dream of new adventures daily. I'm a freediving instructor, yoga teacher and nature-lover. I also love meeting new people. And cooking! I'll happily trade a bed for some mediocre cooking :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted people while living in Azerbaijan, but I haven't done enough hosting or surfing yet.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In my opinion, CouchSurfing is the best way to travel. I've only had positive experiences, and thousands of good memories made with lovely people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've hiked Machu Picchu and surfed huge waves and swam with sea lions and witnessed countless people test the boundaries of their comfort zones. My life is blessed and rewarding.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laughter, conversation and some food!
