About Me

I'm 25, an Aussie/Fijian who's just moved from Australia to London with my partner Corey (31) who Samoan/New Zealander. We're mostly here to travel but I'm also working full time as a Civil Drafter (Corey is a Personal Trainer) so we can make money to spend on traveling. We're pretty laid back, just as comfortable with a night in as a night out. We love meeting new people and have had such a great time doing that through Blablabar (ridesharing) so we want to test out couchsurfing too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think because we're traveling as a couple it's harder to meet people, we have to force ourselves into being more out there - Couchsurfing is one of those ways. Plus you can't beat the experience of a local.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music.. super varied so I'll just list some artists I can always listen to - The Beatles, Beyonce, Adele, Alt-J, City and Color, Queen, Paolo Nutini, Fleetwood Mac, The Rolling Stones, Flume, Frank Ocean.

Movies.. I like ones that make you think - Inception, The Butterfly Effect and Shutter Island. I'm not ashamed to admit I really enjoy rom-coms too for an easy laugh.

Books.. my three favourite authors would be Bryce Courtenay, James Clavell and Jodi Picoult. Gillian Flynn's books and Steig Larssons' Millenium trilogy also had me enthralled from start to finish. I read a lot of non-fiction too, mostly to do with brain science and spirituality.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bloukran's Bridge Bungee - Highest Commercial Bridge Jump in the world at 216m 😜

Teach, Learn, Share

We're both half Pacific Islander (myself Fijian/Australian and Corey New Zealand/Samoan) so we could teach you how to tie a sarong or a little bit of our languages! Corey's a personal trainer too so he can definitely get you sweating.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Travel stories, new experiences, hobnobs or marmite (although, if I had any access to vegemite I'd be bringing that instead).

Countries I’ve Visited

Andorra, Australia, Canada, England, Fiji, France, Indonesia, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Norway, Samoa, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Thailand, United Kingdom, United States, Vanuatu
