About Me

Friendly and easy going Aussie who loves good conversation, good wine and good food. From a beautiful little part of South Australia called the Fleurieu Peninsula.

I arrived in Europe December 2017, then met up with my good friend in Italy to backpack EU/UK for as long as our funds would allow! I have now split with my friend as she returns home soon, and would love to be able to have the opportunity to meet some people on my solo adventure. Sight seeing, although an extremely enjoyable part of travelling, for me is often secondary to the people I meet in the process.

I am the type of person that loves to sit and chat for hours, or can be in the company of others quite contently in complete silence. The goal of my travels is to share interesting experiences with and get to know people from all walks of life. I have found that some of the best times I have had so far have been with local people. As cliché as it may sound I truly crave to have the "real" experience of a place and most importantly its people. Human connection is what life is about!

I am a very respectful, friendly, clean and easy going traveller and would be so thankful to anyone that opens their home to me for a night or two! And if course, anyone I stay with will absolutely have the favour returned if they ever needed somewhere to stay in Australia!

I find it difficult to condense everything into one description, so if you have any questions please ask me!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking for interesting people and different experiences wherever I can! I think life is all about sharing stories, knowledge and passions with other humans at every chance and couchsurfing offers a perfect platform to do this.

Interests

I love hikes, sports and adventure, but also find myself very content just chilling out, reading or watching good films! Also eating - always.
