Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I've couch surfed in Korea and Japan and have loved the experience!

Through the help of a couchsurfing post I stumbled across, I also puckered up the courage to hitch hike from the west to the east of Japan during Winter. What a memorable moment in my life that was!!

Music, Movies, and Books

Hip-hop, house, pop, Indie, Triple J music, electro, rock, trap..anything with a sick beat.

Really into Kendrick Lamar, The Weeknd, ASAP Rocky and The broods at the moment.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

14 day tour in South and Central Mongolia - from the hot dry Gobi desert to snow, waterfalls and forests 2 days later...another planet on Earth!

Boracay, El Nido and Coron in the Philippines - island hopping in some of the most tranquil and electrifying blue-green waters I've ever seen.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a Drama/Chinese/TESOL (teaching English as a 2nd language) teacher. To give you an idea of where I work, I've got 18 students in my class who are from about 12 different countries - a very multicultural and fun school to work at!

I love expanding my understanding about the world and challenging myself both physically and mentally. Learning the fine line of when to be patient and when to be responsible and take action is something I continuously love learning.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Mongolia, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand, Vanuatu, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In

Australia, China
