ABOUT ME

I love history and politics, and am a staunch left-winger. I love to travel, and especially love hearing other languages and (trying to)speak them.

PHILOSOPHY

Being happy, spending time with my friends and learning from other people

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted one Couchsurfer for four days, which was really great. But my first time travelling was 7 years ago, when I was 18, so I feel like I get Couchsurfing. I still havent actually surfed someones couch yet though! Ive done high-school exchanges in France and Italy and hosted the same people came to Australia. Am really looking forward both to surfing and hosting more.

Music, Movies, and Books
