About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling solo, cheaply, insanely

ABOUT ME

Awesome at life and life-related activities! He he.

I'm currently calling myself a "Permanent Traveller" where I hope to work, travel and live on the road for as long as I can. I see myself as friendly, funny and crazy. I'm up for pretty much anything. I have a strange sense of humour and probably too much energy. But I love to make people laugh and will do anything within my reach to achieve that. The beach makes me happy, I love any water-related activities.

I am a medium-slow traveller, staying in places for around 2 weeks to a month (though you would never have to host me for that long!)

PHILOSOPHY

'Ordinary life does not interest me.'
'Life is truly known only to those who suffer, lose, endure adversity and stumble from defeat to defeat.'
'I postpone death by living, by suffering, by error, by risking, by giving, by losing.'
- Anaïs Nin

'I can't think of anything that excites a greater sense of childlike wonder than to be in a country where you are ignorant of almost eveything.' – Bill Bryson

“Take the risk of thinking for yourself, much more happiness, truth, beauty, and wisdom will come to you that way.”
― Christopher Hitchens

"Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them" - Dalai Lama

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a friendly and respectful surfer. I don't see myself as a rockstar and your pad as my hotel room. I know that every person that hosts me is doing me a HUGE favour and I like to try and repay those favours when I can. I'm clean and respectful - you wouldn't regret hosting me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started surfing in India at the start of 2014 and have only had GREAT experiences! I really think this is such a great community and can't wait for the next adventure!

Interests

Travel (obviously), photography, chatting and having a drink, the beach, experiencing new things and Goats. Yeah, goats. Pretty sure I'm going to turn into a crazy goat lady when I'm old and haggard. I'll just be getting around in my shabby campervan with, like, 26 goats hanging out the windows...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trekked 5 days up a snow capped mountain and back down through Peruvian jungle to arrive at Machu Picchu.

Teach, Learn, Share

This sounds kinda cool. My main skills include Photography and Video and these are probably the coolest things I could teach you. Can't figure out that setting on your camera? BAM! Want to know the best time of day to take pictures? BAM! I also see myself as a pretty funny gal so I can hopefully make you laugh.
