I'm looking for more chances to explore the world, and new ways to think about it.

I'm a total hedonist. Adore looking at all the beautiful art and buildings and landscapes that people have made in the world, and those unspoiled bits of it that we've managed to preserve.
Also adore making good vegetarian food (particularly of the baked-goods variety) and sharing it with my friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing feels like the way to learn even more about the places I am lucky enough to travel to.

Just about the best thing ever is getting to meet new people, and finding out the things they know about the world, what they are excited about, and finding out about the places they call home.

Interests

Right now I'm learning more about how to make stuff (making clay pots and a dabbling in carpentry) how to grow stuff (veges, and a smattering of native Australian plants) and how to get stuff done (from figuring out how to get people at the office interested in new ways of looking at problems, to starting to learn coding. These ones will take a while I think!)
