CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty easy-going and friendly. I love films and art and music. Generally prefer the more warped things in life. Am back in Melbourne since being in France for a year.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately my squashy house and lack of couch makes it hard for me to offer one at the moment, but if you want to meet for a coffee feel free to contact me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed once in Lyon. It was a positive experience and hope to do it again sometime.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It sounds ridiculous but I never believed the plane would leave the tarmac in Australia. Just launching off to this new life I now have was enough. Not sure if I ever want to return ...
6 months later - which I now have, but I remember that feeling and the excitement of starting a new life, and I want more!!!
