CURRENT MISSION

Since I'm presently tied down to one world location by study commitments, I'd love to experience the world as it travels through.

ABOUT ME

I'm an avid gardener, swimmer, writer and reader, cook, tea-drinker, story teller and listener. I love variety and colour, from people's personalities to surprisingly coloured vegetables. I've recently had a change of life, from living in a busy cosy close environment to ample space and solitude. I like both in different ways.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a fan of hypocrisy. I'll tell you why. Hypocrisy is just the process of admitting and accepting that my goals are a little ambitious, and that I'm only human.I'm constantly trying to knit together my high ideals with the reality of what I can achieve as a person. Its calming, I find.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am looking forward to hosting people who want to experience the joys that Canberra has to offer. We're a bit out of town, but the beach is close by and we have bikes to spare, there are buses to places and there's company to be had :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was first introduced to Couch surfing in a great sharehouse I was living in. Couch surfers really gave the house colour, meant there was always someone around to play or take tea with. I'd love to go couchsurfing myself sometime when study lets up but for the moment I love it when different worlds flow through my house.
