CURRENT MISSION

Live life, love life.. have a zest for life

ABOUT ME

I am relatively new to CS!
I am basically doing CS with the intention of cultural exchange, connecting with travellers and forming life long friendships.
I am an engaging, personable, open minded, easy going, sincere, curious person.
I generally like to keep myself busy most days
I like to try new foods, but at the same time eat and live a healthy lifestyle.
When i travel i like to explore the lake towns, scenery/nature and go on a foodie trail.

PHILOSOPHY

Be all you can be

Thankyou to all the CSers i have hosted who have been nice and generous enough to go out of their way to have cooked a special meal to share with me and other CSer(s) i host at the same time as them/ gifting me little gifts on their travels like Nepalese loose leaf tea, raspberry flavoured Vodka, German apple cider etc. It really has been greatly appreciated and makes the CS experience much more memorable :)

Interests

I love standup comedy, opera shows, french food and good food-whether it be street food or dining out degustation, and also good wine.
Love my TV & food tubes-cooking, travel shows, docos and reality TV series & watching grand slam tennis.
Love travelling and exploring different cultures, scenery and lifestyles all around the world. Alittle bit of retail therapy for me is good too :D
Would love to listen and chat about your travel stories~~~

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycled to the Burgruine Rotteln from my cousins place in Basel Mullhouse on my own, without a gps!

Teach, Learn, Share

I prefer to host CSers that would like to get to know the way of life in Brisbane, Australia. Im all about cultural exchange in all parts of the world.

Overall, I enjoy good company

Although i live on the outskirts of Brisbane city, i offer the experience of a suburban life, and you get to experience it first hand when you arrive in the Brisbane city and take a 40min bus ride to Wynnum.
It gives you the chance to see beyond what the city and tourist places can offer-well thats what i think :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

A safe, relaxing, quiet, comfortable, tidy place of stay. I like to see myself as a reliable, open, caring & responsive host. If i am already hosting somebody, or if you would like to just meet up and see the sights, i would be happy to show you around. Please message me with an introduction of yourself :D

I can offer tips on travelling and places to go, see and do.
