ABOUT ME
The first time I left Aus was in 2007 to go on student exchange in Toronto. Was meant to be gone for 4 months but stayed 11 with no regrets! I would have stayed longer if I could have but couldnt leave my degree any longer. Since then I have finished my undergrad and have had a couple of short stints to SE Asia (one month each) in 2009 and 2011. Saving for a big trip to South America hopefully next year!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Well I have known about couch surfing for quite a while and have hosted a few really great people. I have not couch surfed myself yet but would really like to next time I travel. I have been out of the CS loop for about a year since I moved to Melbourne, but keen to get back into meeting some more travellers and sharing crazy travel stories!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Fantastic! I have only had great people come and stay with me/meet me for drinks/city adventures. Everyone is super lovely. One group of CS bought me a present, and another even cooked dinner for my whole house- super nice seeing as there were 7 of us living there at the time!
Interests
I love to go out and have a drink (or two) with friends, chill out on the beach, play frisbee or something in a park. honestly, im a very laid back kind of person and just love to hang out with cool people that make me laugh

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
It's hard to think of something on the spot, but I think that the Aztec buildings in Mexico were incredible. It is amazing to think that they had specific reasons for every placement, building etc. everything had a purpose which we dont see today
Teach, Learn, Share
I think the only thing I have learnt so far, is that if you live in a share house, you need to make sure that everyone you live with is as easy going about having CSers come and stay. Make sure they are happy to have a 'stranger' or two crashing on the couch. Where I am happy for people to stay as long as they need, I learnt the hard way that housemates are not always. We ended up setting some ground rules like max people and max length stay, but in the end I had to pack it in...Now I open the idea of CSing to all new housemates and try and get them involved with it too.
