ABOUT ME
I had a previous CS page when i was travelling with my ex boyfriend... we decided to keep it to share references, check them out here.
http://www.couchsurfing.org/people/madib/
I am currently at an artist residency on the outskirts of Beijing. It's a fair hike (about one hour by tube) to get to the touristy stuff, but can offer a pretty genuWine experience.
I'm an art student in adelaide, and i also work at a small but endearing organic cafe. Between study and work, i play some sports, ride my bike, do a bit of gardening, street art and occassionally practice the one song i know on my piano accordion. I am also vegan and looove to cook/concoct.
PHILOSOPHY
life's a garden, dig it.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
