About Me

Hi! I'm a PhD student and sports scientist. Working with snowboard and freeski athletes. I came to Finland a few years ago to do my masters in Biology of Physical Activity @ the University of Jyvaskyla, Finland. Loved it, so stayed!

I was brought up in Vanuatu in the South Pacific and have since lived in Brighton and Canterbury in England prior to moving to Finland in September 2015. I like to socialise, read, play sports, have fun, laugh and drink my favourite beers/red wines. I also love good coffee and slow easy days.

I've also been really lucky and have visited many countries. If you visit and my schedule is free, happy to show the beautiful surroundings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would much rather explore or get to know a place with friendly, open minded people who live there
