Friendly and easygoing British/Belgian (which means I speak like the Queen and consume nothing but the best beer and chocolate 😊) I moved by myself to Australia at 23 and after an amazing 2 years, travelled around Europe for 6 months and then decided to move to New Zealand for 2 1/2 years! Currently temporarily living in Silicon Valley. Moving to Canada in January 2019.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I first tried Couchsurfing with a friend during a whirlwind road trip holiday around Australia (WA, NT, SA, VIC and ACT), and we had nothing but amazing experiences. We met some lovely new people who offered us advice and information on what there was to do in their hometown and graciously put us up :) It has definitely made me very determined to return the favour as soon as I can.

Interests

Cliched traveller interests... meeting new people, exploring new places and experiencing a different way of life. Any advice on what to do locally would be awesome!

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many to mention :) Very eclectic tastes!

I'm currently reading The Lucifer Effect (Dr. Philip Zimbardo), The Zookeeper's Wife (Diane Ackerman) and The Unbearable Lightness of Being (Milan Kundera).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Hopefully interesting stories and laughter :) I can bring beer and/or wine too!
