ABOUT ME

Born and raised in Adelaide, a city in the south of Australia. I have finished university and now work full time. I have only done a little overseas travel but am looking forward to doing much more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently my housemate and I are not home very consistently which makes hosting a little difficult (but not impossible). I am always happy to hang out with people and show them some of Adelaide.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to the whole couch surfing experience. I just want to travel and meet people who live in the places I go because often the people are as interesting or more interesting than the places themselves.

Interests

I very much enjoy new things and new experiences. When I'm at home I like to read, listen to music and watch movies. My hobbies include photography, writting, sketching, playing guitar (poorly), furniture restoration and cooking.
When I travel I enjoy seeing how people live and how their lives are similar or different.
