Présentation
À propos de moi
CURRENT MISSION
To speak more languages! But before that, I'm trying to finish my PhD in History.
ABOUT ME
I'm a historian and a swing dancer (What is that, you ask? Think swinging jazz music from the 1920s-1940s.)
I live between Melbourne and Berlin. I travel a lot for my research and for conferences.
I like to engage with the world around me and learn as much about people as I can. I also love to laugh. I like dry-witted humour, art, 80s music and occasionally even seeing block-buster films. I like finding obscure queer clubs in foreign cities. I like to dress up. I also like camping, eating baklava, and riding my bike. And love watching little kids play in the snow in winter.
Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I want to offer accommodation to others (when I can), receive accommodation in return, and publicise the network to others.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My preferred mode of travel is couch surfing. I love meeting people and seeing their lives and finding out different ways of living (eg renting, squatting, owning, etc).
Centres d'intérêt
History, history, history (only so we can understand the present and change the future!).
I dance a lot. I'm even a member of a lindy hop performance troupe.
