CURRENT MISSION

To lose control, follow my fancies and trust in the universe to provide.

ABOUT ME

I am a sweet, sarcastic, peaceful, helpful, cheeky, juvenile, sensual, complicated, Scorpio Sydney girl.

I love a good dance to any kind of music, eating food I didn't have to prepare myself, talking to my best friends about our funny little lives, lying in bed for hours just thinking, and animals.

I want to be happy, and I want to make others happy too. Couchsurfing let's me do my bit for humanity which has been pretty nice to me so far.

I also love learning things about other cultures and who better to learn from but my couchsurfing brothers and sisters!

PHILOSOPHY

"We are here to run towards what scares us."

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Back when I lived in Sydney I hosted some fantabulous travellers who accepted shelter in my humble home and did mini meet ups with other couchies who were interested in hanging out with an Aussie.

I finally got couchsurfer myself, and I have taken refuge with some delightful folks in Iran, Iceland and Chile. To have someone invite you into their home and help you make sense of their country and culture, well, that was just amazing.

And before my couchsurfing days I always loved a good sleepover!
