About Me

I'm 33 and have lived in Sydney for the past 15 years.
I worked at the best cafe (voted by the Sydney Morning Herald 2016) in Sydney for over two years as a Barista (I made epic coffee ;) )
I am traveling with my partner, Michael Cannon for the next 12-24 months.
We met when he was working for the same coffee company as I and we hit it off. Since then we have decided that we want to travel the world met new people and experience all this amazing world has to offer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing provides a safe way to meet like minded people. We wanted to see the 'real world' not just the touristy places.
For us life is about living and expressing everything in the moment. Couchsurfing means we can engage with actual people who know their city, culture and country like no other.
