I am a very social and curious geek who loves a challenge. I believe in you making the world a better place :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a social butterfly!!

As a host I enjoy sharing my home and city with my guests and also use the opportunity to explore and learn about my own city. I enjoy exchanging travel, CS stories or just the different cultures.

As a Couchsurfer, there is no better way to travel than to travel solo and via the CS community. All my travel experiences thus far has been enriched by people I've met either through Couchsurfing, on tours or even AirBnB.

In early 2015 I offered my spare bed/room to several Couchsurfers. Now I am a Couchsurfer travelling through North America and Europe. Travelling to learn about new places, people and cultures...and expand my career on a global scale!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was petrified of swimming but I got over my fear a few years ago. It took ~15 hours of practice and ~15 hours of one-on-one swimming lessons over the course of a year. Now I enjoy being in the water and am able to do the backstroke quite comfortably but looking to learn other swimming strokes.

Teach, Learn, Share

I provide career coaching and mentoring. Improve the effectiveness of your written and verbal English communication and teach anything else I know.

l would love to learn about different experiences, cultures, music, people. I would love to share my experiences and what I know about Melbourne (like the best places to eat!!)
