About Me

I'm a 23 year old Australian who is currently travelling and looking for opportunities in the not-for-profit sector. I have been living in the Middle east for the past few months but will shortly be returning to Europe to see more and meet more people. I love to write, read and eat. I'm also a pretty decent cook and love a beer or two. I'm up for anything adventurous and always looking for a wacky experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been travelling for nearly six months and have been using hostels most of the way, so I'm ready for a new experience. I think couch surfing is a great way to meet people and get a more authentic feel for the city, so I can't wait to get started.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a big fantasy fan so love LotR, GoT and of course harry Potter. Also into the classics especially Dickens. I'm an avid TV watcher and into most of the big shows; Breaking Bad, Walking Dead, GoT again etc. Movies I'm pretty easy, like everything from comedy to drama to docos.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One thing I used to do for work was perform wedding ceremonies in Melbourne, so not a travel experience but definitely something to write home about! I had a lot of wacky couples and have a bunch of weird stories that go along with them.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always keen to learn the basics of a new language and share my own language skills with anyone who is interested. I also love to cook and think that cooking is a great way to bond with people and share skills and recipes. Also there's food at the end of it which is never a bad thing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Aside from the love of food and booze I have plenty of crazy stories and a few party tricks up my sleeve. Hopefully when I return home to Aus I will also have a couch to share with the friends I've made travelling!
