Overview
About Me
***I CANNOT ACCEPT GUESTS at the moment, as I am heading off to Japan for a while. Enjoy Melbourne!***
So I'm not very good at writing about myself, but I'm a nice person..... I promise!
Anyway some details that may interest you are: I am currently studying Anthropology, I have a frightening addiction to coffee and my childhood dream was to have a pet flamingo (unfortunately this dream was never realised).
I have some serious wanderlust, although I am pretty happy at the moment living in the lovely city of Melbourne. Should you come visit our house, bonus points if you play instruments (especially piano, guitar or mandolin)... we are always looking for someone new to entertain us ;). Also, we have a big garden in which we grow veggies and herbs, so we prefer couch surfers who are interested in helping out with the gardening! It's good fun and our resident garden witch Eloise will be more than happy to teach you a thing or two.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because I've met so many cool people through CS and have had some interesting experiences - including learning about Tibetan sound healing, meditation in Sri Lanka and what happens when Italians lose a football match...

Teach, Learn, Share
I think couchsurfing is all about sharing... I've learnt so much from both hosts and surfers. I would love to exchange languages, stories, recipes, music, beautiful places, adventures, my hobbies, your hobbies... whatever!
