ABOUT ME
I am a university student, currently studying my honours year in adelaide in conservation genetics. I just finished a year abroad in scotland on a student exchange, where I mostly just travelled around. I am also keen at drawing nature themes in patterns, its a neat income. I've travelled throughout my home (Australia) extensively, and last year I travelled through south America, plenty through scotland and through Europe. I intend on going abroad again in 2013.
PHILOSOPHY
I have too many to put here! Always keep a smile works in most situations.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've only had a handful of experiences, but each have been unique and exciting. Being able to relax when life went pear shaped (broken foot, losing ipod, camera and phone - in one day) has been a winner, and helped me look at all of these things in a positive and optomistic way - hopefully my music is being listened to and my photos enjoyed!

Music, Movies, and Books
Blues, jazz, funk, soul, trip-hop, ska are awesome! - but its so hard to label music. My favourite films are those that are slightly more artistic - that I need to watch several times to understand only slightly.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Taken risks. This often is the beginning of something spectacular!
Teach, Learn, Share
Humans share more than 98 percent of our genome with the chimps, why do we think we are so special that we can destroy the rest of the world?
