CURRENT MISSION

Live and learn

ABOUT ME

World Nomad, self-assured, independent. I'm addicted to traveling and love to hear others' stories about their own adventures and sharing my own. After graduating from a fancy University in the US I worked for a year and a half in finance in London. It did my head in so I split for some work/travel/volunteering around the world. A lot of time I've spent on organic farms in some of the world's most beautiful and interesting places. I'm lucky to have had this opportunity to wander and learn and live in so many different places around the globe - the adventure never stops!

PHILOSOPHY

Anything is possible just put your mind to it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Would love to host when i get to where i am going. i also participate in the wwoof program as a volunteer on organic farms and a help-x helper when it suits.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Now I've had a couple of wonderful couch surfing experiences under my belt in Scandinavia and South America which have been awesome! I think I've already had the best experiences possible with it and am looking forward to what the future may hold!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

amazing life eh? well, i travel heaps! Been all over Western Europe a couple times (because I love it and the languages spoken there) lived in Oz for a year in Melbourne, spent a season traveling in NZ, and earlier this year rounding out a 6 month trip around SE Asia, India and Nepal. Just finished a four month wwoofing tour of Europe in Spain, Ireland, Norway and Iceland. HIghlight was hitching around Iceland and getting to know the locals better! Just rounded out a four month tour of South America - had a couple of fun months in Buenos Aires as an English tutor/party fiend then blew through five countries in six weeks! Intense and difficult but glad to have done it.
