About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be the best, most balanced person I can be

ABOUT ME

Hi all,

I am from Australia but I have been travelling for about 8 months now and plan to work and travel for around 3 years, but who really knows. I am an open minded 25 year old that is looking for life experiences that I have not yet found. I am very friendly and accept everyone for who they are - I really enjoy different personalities!

As my trip is quite lengthy I would greatly appreciate anyone that could open their door to me at any stage of my adventure so that as well as meeting great people and experiencing true culture, I can also stretch my funds and experience more of the world :)

Thankyou very much, peace be with you all

PHILOSOPHY

Learning from life experiences to create the best person I can be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am yet to host anyone here in Australia however I hope to do so when I return from my adventure.

Interests

I enjoy all sports both participating and spectating, keeping fit and healthy, adventures, exploring, travelling, reading, beach.
I have lived away from my family for quite some time so my life revolves around socialising and meeting new people, the good ones become my family.

  • culture
  • reading
  • traveling
  • sports
  • languages
  • beaches

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy most music although my least favourite would be country and pop.

Love a good flick and enjoy reading autobiographies and true crime.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have experienced a bit for my age but travel isn't one of them. I am about to embark on the most influential journey of my life. I will write more here as the adventure progresses.

Teach, Learn, Share

The main thing I hope to gain from my trip is knowledge and experience. I am extremely open to the idea of learning anything from the people that can host me, more so than having a bed to sleep in.

As far as teaching, I can only teach what I have learnt in life so far. Unfortunately at this stage this does not include any languages (other than English) or musical instruments although I hope this changes during my adventure.
