ABOUT ME
I dont believe someone can really say the loved or didnt love a city if they dont experience the people, as well as the attractions and sights. The people are who make the city, and they are who I intend on interacting with. Couchsurfers seems like an amazing way to meet the locals. Even if it is just for a chat.
After boring Uni, I travelled, worked (nanny/bartender), surfed, hosted, and partied my way through Europe and Australia. I am now here in Taiwan and I write, research and develop a website about Taiwan tourism. Hopefully once the Taiwan site is finished, I will just choose the next country.
I also have a website about bartending. Please check it out http://www.Bars-and-Bartending.com
PHILOSOPHY

AND MY FAVOURITE LYRICAL QUOTE

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I open my doors to anyone stopping by. I've done this in the past, only I had only advertise at our cities YMCA. After hearing about couchsurfer, I have been as active as I can be. I think it's a great idea! What could be better than Offering a traveller some where to stay and getting to know people in the cities of the world.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I went couchsurfing in London for the first time and it was a great experience. I met some very socialable blokes who showed me around the city and also stayed with. I also couched surfed in Cork for a few week. I was great getting to know all their friends or flatmates, etc.
Couchsurfed in Greece for a few weeks and also in Dubai on my stop over to Australia. In OZ I hosted people at my apartment as well and got to know other local couchsurfers. I was a great way to make friends, have someone to grab coffee with or catch a wave.
Interests
I love to meet new people and see new places. Im an avid reader (NERD) and am at complete peace when listening to good tunes. I want to hear new music in every city I visit.
I danced competitively until I was 18. Ballet point, modern, and partnering. they are the greatest memories, would love to start back up again for fun. Also have done heaps of yoga training. If interested, I could run us through morning exercises.
I love the OCEAN! wish I was there everyday. love to explore the wilderness. get up high in the mountains. watch an inciteful movie. going out in warm rain. and of course, a lil party.
