CURRENT MISSION

Explore Prague before returning home to Australia. 8 months on the road Woo!

ABOUT ME

I'm a sociable 29 year old who has been travelling Europe, the U.K and North Africa for the last 8 months. I have found myself in the beautiful city of Prague, and whilst solo travel is nice, it would be nicer to meet some of the people who reside here. The last place I visited was Bavaria, where I assisted a travelling theatre family pitch their circus tent in Augsberg, and with whom I stayed for the whole month of October. I am clean, love food and cooking and am very independant when necessary.

PHILOSOPHY

"Freeeeeedom!" - Mel Gibson "Braveheart"

"Beauty will be convulsive or not at all" - Andre Breton

"We're living on dogfood, so what?"- Iggy Pop

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to the couchsurfing world, I am looking to host travellers when I return to Australia.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During the last ten years I have been regulary touring with bands and theatre companies, this was only made possible by the generous gestures of kind hearted people opening their doors again and again. I believe that travel is the best way to understand others and ourselves. Partying is also fun.
