About Me

I'm a 23-year-old Tasmanian running, coffee and traveling enthusiast! I've been living in Canada with my partner Dean since February 2015 and have traveled across Canada and the US (10 provinces and 26 states so far!) with Europe on the books next. I will hug all your animals, do anything athletic (please take me running with you!), eat any food you throw at me, and fill your day with bad puns.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling has been incredibly eye opening, scary, hilarious and rewarding. I want to get to know the heart of a place and gain an extended family of traveling pals with hospitality that only locals can provide.

Music, Movies, and Books

Jason Mraz, Jack Johnson, City and Colour, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis... anything really! And I will sing loudly to Shake It Off.

Into the Wild is my all time favourite, but I'll happily watch anything if I'm in the right mood. And documentaries!

Harry Potter, the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings, others that I loved as a kid but have long forgotten the names of. Uni ruined reading for me but I want to do more now I'm traveling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailed a tall ship from mainland Australia to Tasmania. Left my comfort zone to travel overseas indefinitely. Led hiking groups through the Tasmanian wilderness.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach me new recipes! Show me your home from a locals perspective. Teach me about politics. In return, I can teach you how to make boobs out of a napkin. They also double as cat ears, so take your pick!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'll happily help with cooking, introduce you to the wonder of Vegemite, crack some puns, and walk your dog.
