About Me

CURRENT MISSION
PHILOSOPHY
A cup of tea, coffee, dark chocolate and just one unit of beer does fix a lot of things.
We can do it!

Love hanging out. Social personality. Trying to establish local couch surfing community in Coffs Harbour area.

Parenting is like good horsemanship. Give them the opportunity to learn, leave the round yard as soon as possible, keep the world exciting!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My personality is activist, I love non profit stuff, helping eachother and earn experience rather than money.
A couchsurfer member for more than a decade.
I would like to go hiking with other couchsurfers or just hang out.

I´ve met several guests at our place in the Netherlands, always interesting. I remember the man on his pushbike from Spain. Respect for him!
Now hosting in Australia.

Music, Movies, and Books

movie:
Lost in translation, pretty woman, nothing hill, ocean 11, no horror for me😊

Music: I have to admit since I have a 12 year old boy I listen to Tripple J radio and love everything including Justin Bieber. I know it is just weird how things change being a mum. Personally I love many music styles. Bob Marley, Lizzo, Melisa Etheridge, Raccoon and local bands such as Sky Eater.
I absolutely hate ABBA. I have some limits ...lol

Books:
No baggage Clara Bensen
I really admire people travelling with few items.

Army pocket bible.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just be and listen to the sounds of nature.
Weaving a basket from natural fibre is also amazing to do not everything in life falls apart....you can create things that will remain strong.

I have been a nurse in The Netherlands, Nicaragua and Australia. I'm feeling blessed and humble.

" In the spirit of fear no work can be done", Florence Nightingale.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn:

Catch bigger fish
Mustering cattle
Salsa

Taking time for sit spots and just listen to the wild.

I know some stuff about;
Horses

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a happy working mum with one 12 year old boy. We both are curious and enjoy meeting new people and doing activities together, fishing, kayaking, walking and sightseeing.
I enjoy having a beer and chat with someone older than 12 every now and then🙂
