About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn Hungarian.

ABOUT ME

I have a dry sense of humour. I am an extrovert. I enjoy meeting new people as well as catching up with friends. I love to hang out with a large variety of people including a friend who is a nun.
I work in health policy for the local government.
I have completed two degrees
1 in Arts (sociology, politics, international relations) and
2 in Law.

PHILOSOPHY

I like to live life to the full and try lots of different things because we only have one life and we may as well use all of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted lots of people from all over the world and it is so much fun. While living in Ireland I travelled around Europe and I tried surfing at other people's houses and that is fantastic as well. It is a great way to get to know all the people you should have been friends with for years before.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted quite a few people while living in Canberra and Dublin. I have stayed in Finland, Italy, Switerland and Germany couch surfing which was great. Look forward to meeting lots more couch surfers.
