CURRENT MISSION

To learn about ourselves and others

ABOUT ME

My partner and I (Jenny) finished university in 2007 in Melbourne, and decided to live in Europe for around a year in 2008. Before leaving Australia, Jenny worked as a child therapist and nanny, whilst I worked as a university tutor and research assistant (both of us worked part time during our studies). When we get back, Jenny will do some further study to become a teacher, and I will start work as a lawyer.

I studied a bit of French at uni, and Jenny did a bit of Italian. We also are interested in reading and history.

PHILOSOPHY

Our basic philosphy is to go to places, meet people and respect all that we see. A day cannot be bad if you have learnt something from it!

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We participate in couchsurfing, by, of course, doing a bit of surfing and hosting. But we also have made some good friends from couchsurfing and been to some great parties. And we also talk about the project all the time!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have had some great couchsurfing experiences so far. We have surfed with a few people, hosted some others, and, of course, been to some great parties!
