About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I have moved to Lisbon to become a student again, and absolutely loving it! It is a beautiful city with so much to offer. I love the contrast between the old and the new, the way the city evolves with the blend of locals and expats. I am keen to meet more locals to practice portuguese with and also happy to explore Lisbon and beyond with locals, expats and travelers.

ABOUT ME

I am a bit of a dreamer - travelling is my escape and my recharger :) I love meeting new people through travelling, though sometimes i can be a bit shy and I tend to click with the thoughtful types.

I love the wonder of seeing a place for the first time and experiencing the unknown. I'm also a keen photographer who can't walk 3 steps without clicking the shutter..

PHILOSOPHY

life is infinitely richer through the connections you make

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would be happy to show travellers around Lisbon or provide assistance in any way possible.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met so many intelligent, kind and interesting people on Couch Surfing. I'm deeply inspired by this community as a whole, and it brings more meaning to living in a big city like Sydney. I only wish I joined earlier!
