Hey! I'm Abigail, currently living in Melbourne. I am studying full time, and volunteering and work on the side.
I think I am a positive, open person, willing to experience new things and excited to meet new people.
I enjoy cooking, bike riding, and reading.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Although I've had some great experiences in hostels, I want to experience travel in a different way, and have the opportunity to meet interesting people in interesting places while travelling on my weekends off :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been to Europe and Japan

Teach, Learn, Share

I think I'm at a stage in my life where I have a lot more to learn than to teach, although I do love to have engaged discussions and of course I can help anyone who wants to learn English. I can't whistle or do a handstand but I CAN talk, listen, dance, cook, eat, drink and enjoy :)

What I Can Share with Hosts
