About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, learn about different cultures, experience the world

Interests

Adventure, exploring, outdoors, being in nature, being by the ocean, or somewhere where you can see all the stars

Travel - new cultures, learning languages, meeting new people and getting a feel for how they live and getting lost in a new city.

Music - Whether it be jamming with great people, listening to some great live music - jazz in a local bar..

Generally keen to try new things and meet new people!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Marlborough sounds, New Zealand: Hiking for 18 hours straight, through a tropical downpour, in order to get to our mission which was to run the half marathon the next day - which we successfully did - on 3 hours sleep!

Teach, Learn, Share

Language exchange - I could teach English and French. Happy to show you around Perth if you are new and exchange languages, especially Chinese Mandarin at the moment.
Kitesurfing - this is my favourite thing in the world, always happy to meet fellow kiters and happy to show you some good kite spots in Perth
