About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel as much of the world as I can, create great memories and meet amazing people.

ABOUT ME

I'd say I have a confidant, open minded, bubbly personality, always looking for adventure and making the absolute most out of life. I'm a Hairdresser by trade and left to travel 12 years ago. The last 6 years I have been working as a cook/deckhand on sailing yachts.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is what u make it, so make it epic.
Treat others how you'd like to be treated.
Love, trust and forgiveness = beautiful friendships.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've had fellow travelers stay whenever possible and plan to invite coachsurfers to stay the moment I settle down long enough to do so.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined a friend coachsurfing through Canada for a while. Then on my own in Australia, it was awesome. Such a good way of meeting like minded people and getting a true feeling of the area.

Interests

My biggest passion is travel, or you may call it an addiction. Since being able to combine work with travel on the boats I have sailed and dived in many wonderful places all over the world. I love all sorts of sports including: horse riding, yoga, hiking, pool and many more. I've tried my hand at kite surfing and surfing which have been fun and would love to do more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent 4 months in Nepal trekking, 22 days Annapurna and 15 days Everest base camp, then lived/ worked in a village for 3 weeks. The most beautiful people I've ever met.
I've sailed across the Atlantic twice and the Pacific once, just incredible.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to learn to play the guitar and speak Spanish better.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great travel stories if that's your passion.
Love to keep busy so any chores that need doing I'm happy to muck in .
Fancy a hair cut? I can definitely help you out :) .
I'm more than happy to cook and love good fresh food.
