About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to finally get some sort of qualification post school and to be a successful future shoe maker

ABOUT ME

I am currently learning how to make shoes at Tafe. It is an 18 month course, and I am about to finish the first year. I really enjoy it. Previously I was at Uni studying psychology, but I am much happier now at tafe.

During my week I enjoy riding my bike, going to the gym, or the pool and the beach. I go to the local Farmers Market every Sunday and then spend 5 hours at work at a shoe shop. I am at Tafe from Monday until Thursday. I am also learning to make hats at Tafe. I do that once a week for 18 months.

PHILOSOPHY

tomorrow is another day so you have another chance to do what you couldn't do today.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have not been active for a while in the CS community. I previously have hosted when I was living at home. Now I live with one of my sisters and another guy in a shared house and I am quite busy. I would love to host someone soon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Really enjoyed hosting people a few years ago-people who travel seem to have so many things in common with them.

Interests

eating, cooking, sleeping,watching movies, music (listening and watching), going out for food, shoe making, hat making, trying to speak Spanish, bikram yoga, running, being outside, the beach, collecting things from op shops, hoarding clothes, riding my bike, hanging out with my little sister (7). Trying to keep my plants alive.Coming up with ideas for my day, but then getting distracted and not doing them. Wearing lipstick.
