Hello! You can call me Cassy :)
I'm usually very busy with work (youth justice) but I also love spending time creating, indulging in a good movie, or exploring the beautiful world around me.
If you enjoy deep conversations, I'll be excited to share a coffee/beer/wine with you and chat away! :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While I'm not travelling the world myself, why not invite it to share in my home! I absolutely love the CS culture and believe it's a privilege to have a home that I'm able to share with others :) If I am available, I will happily invite you into my humble home and share with you a safe place to shower, eat, sleep, and wi-fi of course! If it's only local advice that you're after, please still don't hesitate to get in touch!

Music, Movies, and Books

My bookshelves consist of mainly poetry, philosophy, science, and classical literature. I may be happy to swap/lend you a good read :-)
Noir fiction, drama that tricks and twists, and any movie that gets you thinking about thinking - will likely be in my DVD collection which you are happy to go through during bad weather days.
My Spotify playlists are eclectic to say the least, although I love to get a bit groovy in the kitchen with Irish-Balkan-gypsy-punk; sing some Meatloaf or Tina Turner in the shower; and chill out to some grunge-dirty-rock while I paint.
If you're savvy with an instrument, please feel welcomed to bring it along and share with me!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

teach: let's cook together or make art together :)

learn: about you, tell me your story, where you've been, what and who has changed you, and where you want to go.

share: meals, conversations, laughs, and adventures :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

When I'm surfing - I'd be delighted to cook you something if I can, buy you a drink and discuss any topic under - and beyond - the sun. I'm pretty keen with a crayon - if you'd let me I'd be excited to draw you! I'd love to share some chats, stories and adventures :)
