I was born in London, but lived in Sydney, Australia for most of my life. I left Australia at the end of 2014 to Bologna, Italy. I was there for two years working in the food tech sector, then moved to Paris to do my Master's degree in International Management, and then moved to Amsterdam, where I currently reside.
I am an open-minded and friendly person who enjoys meeting new people, going on an adventure and having a good dance! I practice Lindy Hop but am also open to learning all other dance styles.

I am always eager to learn about new cultures, especially anything related to food. I am a massive foodie, coffee and wine lover, and have completed my WSET (Wine Spirits Education Trust) Level 3 course.

PHILOSOPHY

Get involved and travel as much as you can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have couchsurfed all across Europe and have met the most wonderful people doing so. In fact, many of my dearest friendships came about through couchsurfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had some amazing couchsurfing experiences in Belgium, Germany, Austria, Italy, Denmark, Slovenia and France and I am looking forward to many more!

Interests

I love food, coffee, wine, film, art and travel. I also enjoy yoga, hiking, swimming, swing dancing, skiing and a good game of touch footy.
I love to cook and eat (of course), and taste different types of cuisine, especially when I travel. I think tasting the local cuisine and wine of a foreign country is one of the most exciting experiences on any trip.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went bungy jumping off the world's highest bungy in South Africa... by far one of the most exhilarating experiences of my life.
For those few moments you are suspended in mid air you feel completely invincible. Nothing else matters except you in that moment of time. For anyone with a burning desire for a pure taste of freedom...this is for you!
