CURRENT MISSION

To travel and a contribute positively where I can.

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in Australia but my Ghanaian heritage allowed me to travel through Africa when growing up. In my opinion, travel is really important in order to explore and understand new cultures.

In 2017, I'm moving to Toronto for a working holiday, travelling through North America along the way. I'm looking to meet as many people as possible and challenge myself to try new things.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is about memorable moments, let's create a new one.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I meet up with people when ever I can. Mostly while traveling, but when I return to Brisbane I would like to host!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed on a spare bed for 2 to 3 weeks in Cambodia in 2017, meeting many people along the way. I like to stay in contact with many people where i can.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed up (and down) all the steps of the Gabba cricket ground in Brisbane - a two-tier stadium holding 42,000. I completed the challenge in 45 minutes and raised funds for cancer research.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good sense of humour;
Snacks;
An eclectic taste in music with Spotify playlists for many occasions;
A broad knowledge of topics which makes me a handy pub trivia/quiz night teammate;
Strong knowledge of Australia for anyone looking to travel there in the near future.

As a guest, I know how to do dishes and clean up after myself. I am also respectful of other people's boundaries and cultural norms.
