Hey! My name is Corinne and I'm a friendly Aussie chick. I love to adventure and learn. I provide classic Australian sarcasm and banter, but I have a tendency to get into deep and philosophical conversations if you start a good topic. I LOVE music and will always be prepared to go out to a gig :)
Note: I am not here to hook up, please don't message me if that's what you are on CS for.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm excited to meet people from all around the world and to learn and experience brand new things. Australia is super isolated and I know so little!

Interests

I'm pretty much interested in anything and everything. I try to keep an open mind, there is so much to learn! I love to be active and outdoors and I love to try new activities and foods. I'm fun and outgoing but not wild. I love the environment and am passionate about recycling and reducing our waste. My favourite feeling is when I'm on top of a mountain being blown about in the fresh wind that invigorates my mind and soul. It's poetic. None of us know why we're here but we're bonded by the fact that we try our best.
The world is a crazy, beautiful, often sad but also amazing place.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've hiked up the Machu Picchu Mountain. It was incredible.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am really passionate about Australia's natural beauty and I'd love to share with you where you should go instead of falling into the tourist traps. Hikes, limestone gorges that you can swim down, water holes and beach camping are my speciality. Australia has so much more to offer than most people know!
I am a swim teacher, and an ex elite runner so if you need some swimming lessons or running coaching in return for accommodation I can help you out! I can cook but it's definitely not my strength haha.
