About Me

Heya! I love to travel (of course) and also love my studies - currently researching how and why we use dating apps. I play field hockey and I cook curries. I am big on self-love and spontaneity and new experiences and embracing life with everything you have. I also live with 2 amazing housemates in a small flat in the Melbourne suburbs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I originally joined Couchsurfers when living in Johannesburg last year, but didn't end up using the app. As I am bound to the Australian shores for this year, I've decided to tame my travel-urges by hosting Surfers! Hoping to meet some cool people, learn something, pay it forward and get to know a community/platform which I hope to utilise a fair bit in my future travels.

Interests

Thoroughly enjoy a bit of travelling, learning, food, hiking, laughing, intellectual conversation, exploring new places, learning, frolicking, swimming, and the list goes on.

  • cooking
  • hiking
  • adventures
  • learning
  • cinemas
  • warm weather

Music, Movies, and Books

In those rare moments of downtime, I'm alternate between Bill Bryson's 'Home' - hilarious, and Yuval Noah Harari's 'Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind'.

Sampa the Great is singing from my iPad as I type. Otherwise Kardajala Kirridarra is a recent addition, and Tash Sultana for a bit of a boogy/sway/head-bop. Also very keen on Hip-Hop and Jazz.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve studied on three different continents?
Gone swimming with sharks?

Teach, Learn, Share

If you are interesting in travelling in Europe I can give you many, many tips.

If you are interested in sociology or gender or the way people interact or how societies function, we could have some very interesting conversations.

I want to learn to dumpster diver! And to salsa! And ways to live more sustainably! Can you teach me?

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good laugh, maybe some curry.

Tips on Melbourne bars, restaurants, cinemas, galleries, beaches, op-shops, parks and public transport.
