About Me

I'm from Australia, currently studying in Sweden. I've spent time working, travelling and studying at different stages. I absolutely love moving around, experiencing interesting things, observing life and making new friends. The things I value the most are a good laugh and a happy life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've had different experiences in travel and tourism, and what I always enjoyed the most were the people. So I would much rather work less, travel simply and connect with other people. Couchsurfing is perfect for that.

Interests

Travel is one of my strongest interests, but much of that is having the freedom to follow interests and opportunities as they come up, in things like surfing, climbing, or just reading a great book in a peaceful place.

  • reading
  • surfing
  • rock climbing
  • solo travel
  • comedy

Music, Movies, and Books

The Great Game - Espionage and high drama on the plains of central Asia in the 1800s.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I previously completed one month of mountaineering training in the Himalayas with the Indian Military. Definitely the craziest and most rewarding thing I have ever done, which also weirdly led to me studying a Masters degree in Sweden, studying Climate Change. Life is full of crazy potential, if you want it :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Something I like about travel is the funny stories you can get out of a bad experience - so it helps to keep a good sense of humour and a good memory.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Interesting stories, a sense of humour, and perhaps some new perspective from moving through different parts of the world. I'm also happy to swap the cost I've saved from accommodation on cooking or shouting a meal for generous and friendly hosts, as a thank you. It's a wonderful thing to accept people into your homes!!
