Hi to you there reading my little thingy here :) I´m pretty resourceful - could probably punch my way out of a wet paper bag if the situation required.

I come from a camping family and love hiking/bushwalking, road trips and weekends away... nearly DIED in an inflatable raft scenario on a glacial lake in Canada (slight exaggeration for dramatic effect).

My boyfriend Tristan and I LOVE our dogs, and everyone elses... and most other critters. Even bugs. They´re like robots/aliens if you look close. We don't love mosquitos though. We will smash them up irreversibly and not feel too bad about it. Its because we love animals so much that we are both vegan :)

Tristan and I both play a bit of geetar, & are pretty keen on music in general. He's epic at piano and can play by ear. I'm jealous! We're good for parties, but we also like quiet weekends and lazy Sundays. Which may or may not involve Nintendo - we're in touch with our innner nerd.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I (hope to) fling visitors into the loving bosom of Adelaide. Well, maybe not fling, more of a gentle shove. And maybe not so much a bosom as, say, a pub door.

I love travelling, and the best way to get to know a place is through the locals who live there! I've only hosted so far, never BEEN hostee (yet).

Interests

Everything is interesting if you think about it long enough!

Hiking, animals, wilderness, good wine, nature, learning or experiencing new things/cultures, philosophy for idiots, Thai & Vietnamese food, sushi, laughing til i cry, sitting in trees, placing the emphasis on the wrong syllable, art, music, rummaging through sheds, the way other people think, the way cultures develop, the way we're the same, the way we're different!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumping out of a plane and falling towards Boulder at terminal velocity from 6000 feet.

looking down on a circular rainbow, seen from the plane window.

Teach, Learn, Share

As a natural resources officer with a passion for the natural world, I like to think I might be able to teach you a little about Australian flora and fauna and help you find a koala or roo in the wild if that's your thing. Or if you prefer, I can teach you where to find good beer on tap or decent free entertainment or live music :)
