ABOUT ME

Hello!!
I'm from Australia, currently travelling the world with my fiance (Charlie) for 13 months (woohoo!).
I love meeting new people and exploring different cultures with open minds. I try our hardest to learn the local languages so I can communicate with the locals and immerse myself in the countries/cities/towns I visit.

My philosophy on life is to try everything once, and always be open to new ideas/activities. Never say no!

PHILOSOPHY

Be positive, patient and persistant!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I travel freely with my fiance across the globe. Yay!

Interests

I'm pretty adventurous, and have travelled a heap of countries in Africa, South East Asia, parts of Europe and America, (and now South America!) and am always looking for opportunities to immerse myself in the local culture, cuisine and dialect of countries we visit.
Outside of travel, I enjoy wine, cooking (and eating!!), exercise and fitness, and a good old dance every now and again too!
DON'T FORGET THE DAD JOKES!!!
I love them too!
