CURRENT MISSION

Be present, dance A LOT

ABOUT ME

I am a regular Jo(anne?) at first sight but when provoked I can be witty, playful to downright silly, imaginative, sentimental, a joyous reveler or a poised yogi

PHILOSOPHY

Say what you mean and mean what you say.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

To surf the high seas of kindness and merriment for all!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed around South America. Loved it. Haven't lived in a house in Melbourne where everyone agrees to host so unfortunately haven't hosted, but have met up with surfers in Melbourne.

Interests

I love music, especially the emotive kind. I listen to a lot of down tempo stuff but also love the vast array of upbeat tunes out there -lyrics or no lyrics - and anything that sounds sun-soaked. I especially love watching live music that sounds sun-soaked while being soaked by the sun. I love food and cooking and eating with others as an activity - it is difficult to find tastes I don't like. I love watching films and I will watch the most loosely interpretable art house movie to the most predictable and corny chick flick and enjoy each just as much. I like cycling as a form of transport, I prefer walking and swimming to running (in fact running and I have never agreed with each other in our various awkward encounters) and I am pretty into yoga these days.
