Hi! My name is Marina. I'm 28 and from the south coast of England. I've been traveling around Australia for just over a year now. I'm easy going, great to talk to and love having a laugh. Very easily adaptable, and resilient.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on here as I've had friends tell me what wonderful experiences they've had, I want to meet new people and learn about others' lives. I've always been a people person, and feel we have so much to learn from others.

Interests

I love anything to do with nature, the beach, climbing, theatre, and music. At home I was a published writer, a professional actress, and sold my celebration cakes.

• baking
• beaches
• slackline
• gigs
• reading books
• theatre
• rollerblading
• climbing

Music, Movies, and Books

Watching anything comedy, some scary (more the psychological than the gory though!) and like some sci fi too! Anything with Johnny Depp in it! Haha.. I love reading Dan Browns series' (the Da Vinci code etc.) and my favourite book ever is The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho (but I no longer have it as I gave it away to someone who helped me!).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been on tv! I'll tell you more about it in person 😜

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach baking, and English to anyone wanting it. I'm also very good at grammar and can look over any writing you might have. And I've got about 9 years of childcare experience under my belt if you have any friends who might need a babysitter.
