About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Just happiness!

ABOUT ME

Love exploring! Love moving, meeting new people, making plans and turning them into realities. To me, music is the rhythm of life, the pulse of living, art can make you fly to another galaxy, food is the sweet pleasures of sustaining ourselves and travel is the essence of growth, knowledge and exchange.

I am traveling with my beautiful life partner, Pete who is a friendly monkey bodied vegan musician. He's lots of fun!

PHILOSOPHY

I don't dream my dream, I live my dreams

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I really enjoy surfing/hosting or meeting people and think CS is an amazing opportunity to make the world a warmer place. I love systems that work outside the systems if that makes sense to you!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When in Sydney I sleep on my sister's couch and am normally woken up at 6am by my adorable nephew who comes to inspect if I'm around! I've hosted some people and also had a great time staying with others in Malaysia and the Philippines.

Interests

I love cooking healthy food, going on road trips, meeting new people, travelling, enjoying festivals, working with communities, volunteering, growing vegies, being creative, writing music, playing the piano if I can find one...let's keep making the world beautiful and special and unique and creative!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing the Dalai Lama in Varanasi for a one week teaching and living with Tibetan monks, cooking traditional food everyday was pretty life changing and amazing! Emersing myself in the concept of BODICITTA is a whole new view point that needs power and dedication!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm trying to improve my Bahasa Indonesia so would love to exchange language. I can teach people how to play the ukulele and cook and show people how to make just about anything vegan damn tasty.
