Hi! I'm a 30 year old Aussie from Melbourne. I've studied Spanish for over 10 years (love it) and am currently travelling South America with my partner. I studied neurolinguistics and (amongst many other things) have worked as an English teacher and in a bookstore.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hi! I am travelling South America with my partner, Mike, and we're looking to meet new people, learn from locals, and if you'll have us, camp in your yard or sleep on your couch. We are more than happy to repay the favour down the line, or with crazy stories and friendly Aussie company.

Hola, estoy viajando por Sud America con mi pareja, Mike. Queremos conocer a gente, aprender de los ciudadanos de los sitios donde nos encontramos, acampar en tu césped, o en tu sofa. Estaremos más que felices a pagar el favor en el futuro, o con historias locas y buena compañía australiana.

Interests

I love learning about everything! People, science, nature, practical things, how to live the best life. And I think the most important things in life are sharing experiences with excellent people.

I like reading, watching movies or good TV series, going to gigs (and sometimes playing gigs), watching/playing football (soccer), learning new languages, eating good food, and drinking good beer and wine.
