I´m from Melbourne but grew up in Borneo and went to an international school.
I´m half Vietnamese and half colonial Australian, and am hoping to live in Vietnam soon.

Just finished a Politics degree with a diploma in French.
I´m interested in community projects to do with sustainability, social justice and art, collectives, co'operatives and anticapitalist initiatives. I´ve done a lot of theatre in the past, largely devised and recently did a site specific project, but am looking to move my theatre practice into projects that are more focused on the community and less on the entertainment for the elite, or already theatre focused people. Trying to burst that bubble.
I think women are incredibly important.
I´ve worked at a food cooperative for 2 years as a member of the community and the community organizer, so am very interested in collectivized businesses and non'hierarchical ways of organizing.
And that´s probably about all I can muster about myself at the moment!

I am increasingly more interested in food and water politics, and agriculture and supply chain politics, growing food. I´m also really interested in spatial politics and urban dynamics. Also love going on walks, swimming, hiking.
Would also love to get better and snorkeling and cycling.

I love meeting new people who challenge my perspective and help me grow.
I also love sharing experiences with other people and the values that couch surfing espouses.

Happy to add you on Facebook to confirm that I´m ~ real ~

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people, to not contribute to tourism that kills cities and cultures, and to engage more with the people of the places I visit.

Teach, Learn, Share

Know a lot of theatre exercises and have done a lot of facilitation in community organizations, theatre, event organization and nonhierarchical decision making.
