Hey All!
I'm Manisha, a recent graduate of Engineering and Maths. I'm currently working.
Outside of work, I'm really interested in travelling, reading and watching movies ( a huge fan of the arts!).
I live in Australia, but have lived in Sri Lanka (where my background is from) as well as having lived in Japan.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Really excited about meeting new people - particular from other cultures and countries.
I have also travelled to India, for humanitarian engineering studies and am fascinated about learning about other cultures and perspectives.

Interests

Movies!
Everything from documentaries to drama's to chick flicks.
It's my 2016 new years resolution to watch 2 new movies (particularly international films) every week! This is actually harder than it seems!

I also love dancing, painting and photography (and I don't mind dabbling in a little bit of poetry at times).
My favourite places to visit are art galleries, and I am a theatre nut!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Oh golly, I'm not too sure...
One semi-cool thing I've done is build an igloo hahah (or more like a hill of snow with a cave carved in it... so not quite an igloo)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd love to share my local knowledge of Brisbane city to those who visit.
We are a small city, easy going and laid back.

Beautiful weather, but can get quite hot and humid in summer!
