About Me

26yrs old.
Australian born and bred.
Out going, adventurous, spontaneous and
always up for a laugh.
Always has a good story to tell.
Jack of all trades, master of none.
Housetrained*

*worked 5 seasons as a housekeeper between Canada and Australia so I'm quite tidy, respectful and know how to clean up the filthiest of things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I find that couch surfers (abroad mostly but locally too) are 9 times out of10 the best people to have first contact with on foreign soil. Be it to find the best local joints for a beer or to experience something off the stale 'tourist to-do-list' menu.

And that's exactly what I'd like to offer travellers coming through Perth, a tour guide, a drinking buddy, a local who knows a few great drinking holes, camping spots and wild places to explore!

Just got my own apartment and will start hosting soon :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- I've been an extra in the Canadian film 'The Right Kind of Wrong' along side Ryan Kwanten.
-I had a butt nekid photo of myself on a mountain used as a promotional tool for a travel company (think naked version of The Christ Redeemer).
- Snowboarded for a mile in only my pink undies and an Aussie flag for Australia Day in -16 Celsius.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to swear in German and Spanish (if you're a native speaker of these languages, please teach me more! 😉) and I can teach you how to snowboard ;) because it's cooler than skiing.

I want to learn new drinking games, musical instruments, wild sports (kite surfing, wake boarding, cliff diving), learn how to swear in more languages and learn how to front flip on a snowboard.

I'll share with you my beers/wine, chocolate and all the crazy stories I've accumulated over the years while working at ski resorts, playing in Australia's mines and accepting way too many challenges.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As well as what's written above I can share my abundance of travel stories/ hilarious mishaps, teach you how to speak like a real 'Strayan, show you how to pack with military precision and share with you my wild sense of humour.

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, Chile, England, New Zealand, Scotland
