I am a trained dancer and physical performer. I have been performing and teaching around the U.K., Europe and Australia for seven years now. I have great respect for the human body, in all it's forms . I have a daily practice of my own that could be classified as yoga, but it is more about self cultivation of body and mind.

Currently travelling through Australia. Started in Brisbane passed slowly through Cairns, Darwin and now in Southern Western Australia

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking to stay with and spend time with local people. I enjoy living humbly and experiencing how others choose to live their lives

I will be an artist in residence at the Fremantle Arts Centre from the 14th August - 1st September. I am looking for a place to stay during this time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2014 I cycled solo from Melbourne to Sydney. As a personal challenge but also to raise money for an important charity based in Manchester, U.K. 'The Albert Kennedy Trust'
It was my first introduction to this fascinating country. Along the road I met some incredible people, some very intense weather and lots of extraordinary country.

Teach, Learn, Share

Having trained as a physical performer I have an understanding of the human body and its holistic performance potential. With this understanding, I can share with you body work techniques and benefits.

I have a reasonable level of strength and fitness and am willing to put work into labouring, gardening and general house work should you need a hand with anything. I have a keen interest and some experience in kitchens, although not a chef by any standards, I do enjoy to cook.

I am a passionate youth worker aside form my dance career and I am happy to spend time with, play and learn with children and young people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a clean, respectful person, fascinated with languages and accents. I'm usually up early to do my yoga (some days that's easier than others).

I identify as a relaxed vegetarian, preferring not to eat meat however I'm happy to eat a meal cooked for me . I have a few signature dishes and am happy to help out in the kitchen.
