CURRENT MISSION

Planning the next adventure, and looking forward to being able to host couchsurfers soon!

ABOUT ME

Australian couple (aged 24 & 29) trying to get the 'travel bug' out of our systems (if thats ever possible) on a 6 month holiday around india, europe and the US (we'll be more than happy to provide a couch/spare bed once we're back home but it's currently tennanted!).

We're both easy-going, considerate non-smokers who enjoy a social drink (or two...), sometimes a dance, meeting new people, exploring new places and having a laugh.

PHILOSOPHY

if life throws you lemons... order your vodka with a twist!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hopefully by surfing some fun and interesting peoples couches across europe, and for when we get home I've already begun collecting all sorts of info on brisbane and local events etc and I'm looking forward to hosting people from all over the world in our home city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It was great joining the Darmstadt group while we were there for 4 weeks as Jase was working. They get together for dinners/drinks/movie nights etc often and made us feel so welcome- it was so nice to have a bunch of friendly faces and local things to do in a foreign city.
