ABOUT ME
So, I'm 23 and I've now been travelling for almost 18 months; after an insane but fantastic 7 months in South America, I found my way to Australia where I've been cruising around and making the most of this beautiful country.
I love meeting new people, embracing new experiences, seeing new things; the natural world fascinates me, from time to time I nerd it up but most of the time I just enjoy being in great places with cool people.
PHILOSOPHY
Life is far to short to stop having fun, so seize every opportunity and make the most of every encounter.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I'm pretty new to couchsuring but meeting so many people with awesome experiences, I've been persuaded to check it out for myself!
Interests
I love being outdoors, whether it's just chilling on a beach or trekking through mountains. I like cooking (though I often fail, miserably), but I guess more I enjoy good food (and drinks!) with fun people and interesting conversation.

Music, Movies, and Books
The movies I watch- everything from deep and meaningful to action, the occasional horror movie, kids movies (I watched Madagascar the other day and thought it was awesome)
Music? Once upon a time I would have said Indie and Rock but these days my taste is pretty eclectic- I will always love the Libertines, The Beatles, The Clash, Bob Dylan, Mumford and Sons but you will catch me listening to country, drum and bass, generic pop
Like most travellers I read a lot, some of my favourite books include The War of Don Emmanuels Nether Parts, Far From the Madding Crowd, Catch 22, The Great Gatsby, I'm always open to new suggestions though!
