CURRENT MISSION

to consume my weight in cheese

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised on the Gold Coast, Australia. I've been fortunate enough to study abroad during my undergraduate studies in China and Sweden. I love wandering around the streets of new cities in the middle of the night and early morning, as that is my favourite time to shoot. I talk too much about cheese, slow lorises and red pandas, and have a mild addiction to tea and social media.

PHILOSOPHY

people should eat more cheese, unless they're lactose intolerant

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I used to host the fortnightly CS meeting on the Gold Coast, and organise other events as well. Since moving to Melbourne I haven't participated much in the community but want to get back to it

Interests

photography, running, yoga (bikram and vinyasa), eating cheese, gigs, sleep, global political economy, politics and international relations, human rights

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm never good at describing my favourite films, music and books. I like most genre of rock except metal and its subgenres; with a major soft spot for pop punk.

As a hipster of sorts, I like pretentious foreign films and want Wes Anderson to direct my life. I like Stanley Kubrick like any self respecting hipster. Other favourite films include Fight Club, Donnie Darko, Garden State, Pixar, Blade Runner, Studio Ghibli, Tarintino, Dogma, Melancholia, Zombieland and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind to name a few.

The books I enjoy would be in a similar vein to the films I like; and being a big Harry Potter nerd.
