Music, Movies, and Books

TOO MANY Books - one of my favourite writers of all time is Huraki Murakami I love: The Wind up Bird Chronicles, What I talk about when I talk about Running Music - been through so many phases - I love most genres, really love to dance and play piano Movies - too many Eternal Sunshine, Zoolander, Napolean Dynamite.....

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Started the aHHa movement with some of my students. Kids are the best

Teach, Learn, Share

I love languages, so speaking and learning any new languages is something that we do while we share the couch surfing experience.

When you come down to Australia, I can take you down to the beach to surf.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking skills, languages, happy company, endless discussions about philosophy and life.
