About Me

Full time student currently studying Urban Planning at RMIT. Interested in everything bike related. I work at a cycling advocacy non-profit organisation in Melbourne promoting cycling as the best way to get way to get arount

I'm from Melbourne so naturally I have an overblown addiction to coffee.

Love getting down for a boogie and catching a live band. Jazz, hip hop, funk, soul, or anything groovy. Often enjoyed with a gin or glass of wine!

I love cooking up a storm in the kitchen. My vegetarian pho regularly gets rave reviews.

I'm currently on university exchange in Utrecht and planning on some cheeky weekend trips to neighbouring cities/countries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Used couchsurfing extensively while travelling a few years ago and had an amazing time meeting interesting people.

Continued the good times hosting people at my sharehouse in Melbourne the last year.

Never a dull moment meeting open and accepting people in the couchsurfing community. Keep the adventures coming!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite book is Catch-22. Any book that makes you laugh and cry uncontrollably in front of strangers on the train is a winner.
Just finished reading Kafka on the Shore. It reads like Studio Ghilbi film. Pretty magical!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Closing off a highway with friends in Colombia and having an impromptu dance party at 3am.

Watching Sigur Ros play in Golden Gate park with the tightest crew that we'd just met days before hand. Late at night, fog descended on the forest, purple glow backlighting the stage with Jonsi slaying the guitar with a violin bow. It was close to being transcendental.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A delicious meal and good company. Dance moves that will shock and astound.
