About Me

Hiya Everyone!
I sold everything back home in Australia to go travel for a year or two or three who knows! So unfortunately for this reason I can't offer a couch in return for now! But in the future wherever I end up in this beautiful world, I would be happy to host :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I left my dream job to travel Europe and I want to experience the culture and local life and explore the unseen. I want to learn as much as I can from the people of this earth. I think couchsurfing is a great idea to learn more from local people about their heritage and country. I want to know what everyday life is like and their food (I LOVE Food).
I want to be able to tell many stories about my new friends around the world.
