I am a non-smoker. I drink a beer once in a blue moon, but only one. I do no other drugs, do not really go out. I love the free music the city provides. I have my profile from Brisbane, however I just flew here from the US a month ago. I am now seeking a visa here, and am permanently here for the time being. I have been granted a working bridging visa which kicks in April 11. Until then, I need to find accommodation. I have money, but will need it to get a place so I can work and get on my feet. I have 8 weeks to fill in. I have to wait for my tourist visa to expire until I can work. I do not want to get the expense of an apartment (with the bond, etc...) until I find a permanent job. I am 51, no kids, and no husband. I love Australia. I love the outdoor lifestyle. I love the opportunities to succeed here.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing because I have travelled before and know that it is a great experience to share stories of your travels with others who are passionate about learning about each others culture, life experiences and to share cooking and cleaning duties.
