CURRENT MISSION

I am currently living in Queretaro, Mexico for a semester study abroad! I plan on doing some trips around the country and then to Guatemala and Cuba :) My current mission is to meet new people and immerse myself in Mexico as much as possible.
I grew up in the leafy paradise of Maleny, on the sunshine coast hinterland climbing trees, picking flowers and romping around. I love plants, gardening, art, bike riding, music and a good adventure :) But most of all I love sitting around drinking tea with good company and a good conversation

I have travelled around Central America since I was a baby with my mum.
2013 I travelled around Europe and volunteered in Kenya.
2015 I explored Vietnam, Cambodia and China for a few months
I am currently studying art history, politcs and anthropology

PHILOSOPHY

Surround yourself with people who make you happy, who challenge you, and who help you learn and grow.

Hate is a dirty word, everyone is coming from somewhere, try to understand where that is, maybe you will both learn something.

Do things that scare you.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was in high school I used to down 10 plates of food at Sizzler all you can eat every time. I think that's pretty impressive....
Also i once climbed a snowy mountain in China during a cold snap in really cheap sneakers which literally froze solid.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: What I believe in
Learn: What others do
Share: life with beautiful humans.
Always keep an open mind and be prepared to have the way i think fliped upside down! Knowledge is far greater than opinions.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Now in my 4th year of sutdying anthropology, art history and politics, i could talk all day about australian art history and politics. I consider myself a really passionate person and love nothing more than a good conversation, especially when i meet people with different passions, ideas and opinions than my own! I love dicscussing art, culture and making food :)
I'd be more than happy to cook you a meal and share some Australian music with you :)
