ABOUT ME

I'm a 25-year-old student of Nursing based in Brisbane. Although I'm a while from graduating but I hope that I will be able to use my skills to participate in medical aid efforts abroad.

I try to travel as much as I can, which normally constitutes a few trips a year, and I love meeting locals and expats to gain insight from their perspectives and build friendships.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I see couch surfing as a wonderful opportunity to meet locals and expats outside of the hostel scene.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Unfortunately I am unable to host in my city, but I have been hosted a number of times and met one of my best friends couch surfing in Jakarta, Indonesia.

Music, Movies, and Books

My taste in music ranges hugely. Some artists that features on my most currently listened to play list includes: Wu Tang Clan, Nick Cave, Kelela, Grimes, Stevie Wonder, Queens of the Stone Age and Toots and the Maytals.

I love books and there are too many to list. But my favourite author is Margaret Atwood.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A gibbon once attacked my in Mandalay. It was equal parts amazing and awful.
