Hey there,
My name is Maddy, I am from Australia, and love to travel.
To keep myself busy, I attend music gigs - regularly.
I ride a motorbike, and also downhill mountain bike.
I enjoy catching up with friends over dinner or a drink in town, catching a film at the cinema, or relaxing and becoming enthralled in a book.

I have just embarked on a 3 month solo trip to the United States, exploring cities and National Parks throughout - I have spent most of my time backpacking, meeting interesting people along the way with whom I can share moments and exchange stories with.

I am truly blessed to live the life I lead.

I lived in London for 2.5 years, where I spent months on end traveling the UK and Europe.
A couple of highlights;
Granada, Spain - I stepped off the bus, and felt instantly at ease, I loved the old city, the steep hills, the beautiful scenery and the mountain surrounds. I did an epic trip up to Siete Lagunas with 25kg on my back - have never had to push myself so hard, but an astonishing self achievement.
Florence, Italy - I have just one word for Florence - charming!
Versailles, France - Marie Antoinette's Estate was truly breathtaking.
Ireland - the whole country is filled with rolling green hills, dropping cliff faces, and the locals are super friendly.

I made a trip through Thailand, the highlight was a 3 day trek departing for Chaing Mai, it was amazing walking through the jungle, the scenery was just spectacular, I swam under waterfalls, meet locals, stayed in tiny villages on the mountains and made some great friends along the way.

I love to experience life through culture, music, food and drink, and meeting the locals is sure way of doing just that!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To get to know a town through the people that make it their town.
