About Me

I'm a very open, energetic, and resourceful chick. I have an appreciation for the intricacies of life, with a particular place in my heart for the beauty of human interaction.
I'm always down for quiet time, hangs, board games, and partying. I grew up in Margaret River in the south west of aus, so I know a lot about farm life, fine wine and food, and surfing!
I'm a burner at heart and dream of making it to Burning Man soon. I try to live life by the same ideals we live by there.

I'm an artist, studying fine art and creative advertising and graphic design at curtin university (mostly working in painting and print making at the moment). I'm also working for a surf school in both instructing and marketing. I also work as a private carer for a client with cerebral palsy. I've spent the last 11years as an elite netballer, so I'm keen for all things nutrition and fitness too. I'm starting to work my way into music festivals, I love working events so hope to get into that a bit more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd love the chance to meet new awesome people and travelers! And also help a brother out when they need a hand :)

Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste is extensive, as music is a pivotal part of my lifestyle.
I love films, you'll always find me at the current local film festival or rewatching amazing director's work over and over. I come with a hard drive FULL of movies I'm happy to share with you!
I love a good fantasy novel, getting lost in a different world is amazing to me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked the Groove in the Moo festival in WA this year and met artists, watched acts from side of stage and had an absolute ball!

I also went to Blazing Swan (regional Burning Man event) this year, had my world turned upside down in the best way. I've met so many amazing people and had so many incredible experiences I've already booked tickets for the NSW event Burning Seed. I'd love to meet more fellow burners on the east coast!

Teach, Learn, Share

I know some great sports massage techniques due to my time as an elite athlete in the WAIS and AIS programs, always happy to share! Similarly any fitness or gym program advice I'm happy to help with, or just a gym/running buddy

I am happy to teach you how to surf!

If you want any artistic / creative advice I am more than happy to share everything I've learnt at university.

I'm super tall so if you need help getting something down from the top shelf I'm your gal

I'm starting to learn French if you happen to have a lot of patience haha
