ABOUT ME
I left Australia 4 years ago for a simple 4 month exchange, and well, I didn't go back! Since then I have lived in France, Tanzania, Switzerland and Holland, America and Sweden.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I believe Couchsurfing is a great way to meet like minded travellers. These are people who understand that visiting a place doesn't involve simply seeing a painting in some museum, but rather living and talking with the people from that area.
I haven't yet had too much experience with Couchsurfing as I've been living in countries as opposed to backpacking around them which has meant that I've had a social network around me.
Interests
Back in Sydney I spend most my weekends on the harbour sailing or in the blue mountains hanging off some cliff somewhere rock climbing... I love being outdoors

I'm currently learning French. I'm B2ish so very conversational!
I'm also fascinated by ideas, technology and philosophy. I'm always eager to have a chat about anything!
