Overview
About Me
I'm an undergraduate Chemistry student currently studying in sunny Adelaide, Australia! I'm not sure when I caught the travel bug, but I've always been fascinated with history and cultures different to my own, and I'm awed by both the little differences and similarities I find during my travels. It was partly my interest in history that inspired my trip to Europe, which began in the incredible city of Istanbul, before snaking across the European continent to finally finish in London.
I've been on several trips overseas before, but this is the first time I've travelled alone. I'm visiting North America because I was accepted for a semester exchange at the University of Guelph in the fall. I travelled along the West Coast of the USA for 6 weeks before starting here and will be travelling again after the semester ends - this time to Mexico as well as the United States!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love travelling to new places and meeting new people, and I was referred to Couchsurfing by friends of mine who think that it's the best way to get to know a new place.
Interests
I'm an avid lover of music in all forms, and I love playing guitar! I also love the outdoors (hiking, skiing and kayaking), hanging out with my friends, and meeting new people!

Teach, Learn, Share
When people make sacrifices for you it's important to be humble and thankful, and this helps us grow as people.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I love nothing more than deep conversations, so you can expect that! Beyond this, my experiences and a different culture.
