For the passed few years I've been living and traveling Australia and many different parts of the world. I've been on a huge journey of self development and growth! I'm a Vipassana meditator, meaning I practice mindfullness and self observation regularly. I also don't drink or smoke or do drugs, but I love live music, dancing, laughing, having fun and going on adventures! My ideal night would be sitting around a camp fire with a bunch of awesome people, passing around the guitar for sing along songs, telling stories and philosophising about life re keep to hike some of the Te Arora together or go ski diving :D

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
When I'm travelling around I love meeting locals and having really authentic experiences, rather then falling into tourist traps and missing all the secret gems! :) I love meeting new people, hearing their stories, seeing where they've come from and where they're headed! Human nature fascinates me and I'm a big people person.
Music, Movies, and Books
I love all kinds of music, it really depends on my mood, but I can always listen to Jack Johnson, Xavier Rudd, acoustic chill out vibes Documentaries! Cowspiracy, Living On One, Earth, Food Inc, Dhamma Brothers, Doing Time Doing Vipassana, and also funnily enough I love the film Avatar (blue people one) because I think even though it made it big as a Blockbuster, it was really a very provocative film about the destruction of our environment and treatment of indigenous communities Brene Brown is my all time favourite non fiction writer, Isabelle Allende is my favourite fiction writer, and then I've read anything and everything in between
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Hiked a volcano in Indonesia Climbed the Bicentennial tree (75m high treetop lookout, no harness, no nets, only a few pegs nailed into the tree) overlooking gorgeous Karri forest Skiing in the French Alps Trekking through jungle on one of the small Fijian islands only inhabited by local villagers Abseiling/rock climbing/white water rafting in my home country
Teach, Learn, Share
I can cook you a beautiful meal! I love learning new languages and new skills and anything outdoors I love singing and dancing and can play a little guitar, so anything you can teach me or that we can share musically is magic :) Some of the biggest lessons I've learned so far in life are that: the key to happiness is awareness, equanimity and gratitude (for everything, even the difficult times, the pain, the grief can all be learned from). Love everyone and everything with an open heart because we're all part of a bigger whole. And global change starts with the individual and peace comes from within <3
What I Can Share With Hosts
Story telling Home cooked meal Sketch or watercolour painting General song and dance, fun and frivolity!
