ABOUT ME

I am a cocktail designer, involved in the kink scene, passionate about the human mind, open to all sorts of adventures and learning about meditation. I graduated with a Bachelor in literature and cinema and have been traveling a lot since. I love going to concerts and shows, art fairs, social events, a nice stroll around the city and connecting with cool strangers.
I am currently living in Melbourne on a working holiday visa and want to discover this part of the globe while I am here.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others as you want to be treated.
You can learn something from everyone.
Adventure awaits!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it is amazing to share your home with others and meet travelers from all around the world and discuss with them in total respect without any transaction. We live in a world that revolves around money and individualism, and I like to believe that couchsurfing is more about building a community, making connections between people around the world who share their homes and time with genuine intentions. I have met the most incredible people who I consider now to be my friends.
We are all citizen of the world and meeting all kinds of humans from everywhere, whether it is in my home or theirs, has always been an enriching experience. I want to see the place where I'm at from the perspective of a local and live like them, not like a tourist.

Interests

I am very involved in the queer and kink community, in the feminist movement and environmental issues. I also consider myself an advocate for animals rights, who are for me as oppressed as women in our society.
I am passionate about traveling and believe that every day is an adventure that is worth to be lived fully. We create our own worlds and attract people who are meant to be in our journey. I want to discover as many countries and cultures as possible and meet people who will show me different ways of living.
My favorite things to do is going to concerts, any kind of live music show, movie theatre, a nice dive in bar, a burlesque cabaret, live art performances, or spend hours in a bookstore.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A road trip in Iceland where I mostly enjoyed the westfjords.
I rescued my dog, that I found on the street running towards a highway, and had her for 5 years. She passed away last fall.
Leave everything behind me and move to a new country with no plan.
Written a novella that was published.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a bartender specialized in cocktail mixology. I am a very good chef with lots of inspiration and culinary ideas. Cooking is a form of art for me. Also, I love sharing and learning about new books, authors, artists, movies and exhibitions! We can discover so many new things that are in our interests from a simple conversation.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am very respectful, sociable, clean and most of all trusthworthy.
I can share a delicious home-cooked meal, cocktails, interesting conversations, and fun!
