About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore, create, laugh and make a difference.

ABOUT ME

I'm a bit of a dork, and try not to take life too seriously (which can be hard when there's so much devastation happening). I'm really empathetic, sometimes to my detriment, but it also makes me a great artist (life-long passion: acting). I'm crazy about dogs, especially my beautiful dogs Mak and Obi.

THINGS I CARE ABOUT
Animals, the environment, kindness

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Getting the "local" experience is something so unique and wonderful. We've loved sharing with guests (when our house was set-up for it), and had invaluable experiences whilst travelling. I've been hosted by incredible people, and had meet-ups and made life-long friends with others.

Interests

I'm an actress, a dog lover, an adventure lover, and I also work in film and TV casting and am an ESL teacher. I love art, film, dance, languages, outer space, and learning things I know nothing about. I love travelling, talking, and drinking fantastic wine.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm currently reading a couple of books by Oliver Sacks
Podcasts I love are: conversations, after on, chat-10-looks-3,

I love all sorts of movies - different for different occasions! I love old films, and 80's trash, some rom-coms.
My favourite TV shows at the moment are police dramas of any sort (especially British ones), as well as Brooklyn-Nine-Nine.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Adopted too beautiful rescue dogs who are my heart ;)
My first (small) role in a cinema release feature film (awesome experience!)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Aussie culture and lingo. Vegetarian cooking, good company, and interesting conversation. I'm also an acting coach, ESL teacher, a great listener and pretty good at pep talks/life advice.

Countries I’ve Visited

France, Germany, Indonesia, Japan, New Zealand, Scotland, Thailand, United Kingdom, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

Australia
