About Me

I'm a 24-year-old female who was born and bred in a country town in New South Wales, Australia. I have just returned from 19 months in Europe; travelling for seven, and living in London for a year. I have a Bachelors Degree in Behavioural Science and Counselling and am still participating in my belated gap year/s (this is currently my third year haha). I am quite sociable and really love meeting new people, and hearing their stories. To me, that is the best part about travelling! I love a challenge, and good adventure, and am looking forward to many more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am really interested in different ways of travelling, meeting people, and having new and interesting experiences. I think that whilst seeing things and going to places is an amazing part of life, it's really about the people that you meet and the experiences that you have. I feel that this is a great platform to do exactly that!

Interests

I'm a big music fan but find it quite hard to describe my taste. Anything from Ray Charles to Arcade Fire, George Fitzgerald to Fleetwood Mac, ELO to Tame Impala - very eclectic. I enjoy getting out and about and trying new things. I would love to say that I am a big sports fan, but that would be a big lie (I like sport, but it doesn't like me - believe me I've tried). I do enjoy exercise though, given it be outdoors and of an exploring nature. I really enjoy sharing stories with people and hearing theirs.
