CURRENT MISSION

To have an awesome ADVENTURE!

ABOUT ME

I'm a 31yo year old Aussie female.

ME >>>> http://www.facebook.com/bethprismall

I love animals, and volunteer at the RSPCA.

I hate stupid people, and narrow mindedness. Dishonesty is something I just can't take in a person, and I value trust above most things.

I have a bunch of different moods. I love to party if the mood is right, but otherwise am content to just chill. I'm pretty easy going.

PHILOSOPHY

***I travel, therefore I am.***

I have a burning need to see and do. I need to see new places, and meet new people. I have traveled some Asia, UK, Holland, Germany and France. I need to experience as much of the world as I can.

My next trip is planned for September 2017, to Amsterdam and France. And we'll see what else I can afford!! :P Plan on meeting my family in the south of France, however plan to see Amsterdam again, and do the things I missed the last time.

There is so much out there for me to experience, it will take longer than my lifetime to do it properly, so I am just going to flow with it, and do what feels good, and enjoy what I can, while I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now, am planning my trip, looking at talking to and meeting people.

Please host me. Please. I promise not to steal your forks. Or spoons. LOL!!

Whenever someone needs a couch and happens to want one where I live, go ahead and request it, if I'm free, you've got one. Sometimes I'll even have a spare room. :) I recruit friends too, when oppurtunity knocks...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love to surf! Meeting new people and learning new things is amazing fun. I have had some INCREDIBLE experienced, surfing, and with meeting other CSers at events. :)

Just finding out the differences between what people in Australia and different parts of the US call 'soft drink' was interesting. Soda, pop, coke, softdrink...... LOL!

>>>>>Currently have traveled through UK, Holland, Germany and France<<<<<

Just landed at home yesterday, 7th August 2009, and won't be taking off again until I have the finances again in 2011, when I ancitipate Europe again in May for several months.

I will probably be making a small trip to Sydney NSW in around September this year also, and would love to met some Aussie CSers!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I created life inside my body. I also survived childbirth.

I have seen women dressed up, in high heels riding bikes, walked over 19 000 square feet in the Holocaust Memorial and seen punks drinking beer on the train from a plastic carton of 30 in Germany.

I've seen people having sex on a stage, looked at the genuine first diary of Anne Frank, and seen the building she was hidden in for years during the war, and smoked pot and sipped fanta for a whole afternoon while I laid on a couch in Amsterdam.

I have seen ancient artifacts from Egypt, Greece, Rome, Peru, England and France, in the British Museum. I've been to Piccadilly Circus and Trafalgar Square, seen Monet's paintings, and met my favourite painting, Renoir's "Umbrellas" in the National Gallery, and have lazed about in Hyde Park with coffee and croissants.

I have had Champagne on the top of the Eiffel Tower with a romantic French man, at sunset.

I have seen the Mona Lisa.

I have watched the sun rise from a plane window, as I flew the last minutes of my 2 day transit home to Australia, after being away from my family six weeks and just wanted to be hugging them.
