I'm from Melbourne, Australia and I moved to the UK earlier this year to work (I'm a teacher) but I am now wandering around Europe seeing as much as I can. I'm keen to experience new things and meet new people (especially locals) and I think the couch surfing community could provide me with exactly those opportunities!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I love interacting with people from different cultures and living authentic (and cheap) experiences.

Intereses

I've just finished walking the Camino de Santiago (over 900km in Spain) and am eager to explore more of Europe for the summer and broaden my horizons.

• arts
• reading
• hiking
• tennis
• travel
• films
• meeting new people
• banter

Música, películas y libros

I love all sorts of music. My favourites include 30 Seconds To Mars, Bon Jovi, Mumford and Sons, Sam Smith and the Australian band Powderfinger. I'm exceptionally good at singing one line from hundreds of songs without knowing the rest of the words.

I love classic novels such as anything written by Jane Austen but I also like newer releases. I recently finished Home Fire by Kamila Shamsie which was incredible.

I'm a fan of movies from the 90s. I can quote a lot of 'Con Air' and 'Face Off' (obviously I liked Nicholas Cage when I was younger). And I truly believe that Die Hard is the ultimate Christmas movie :P

Algo increíble que he hecho

Once I did the perfect reverse parallel park in a station wagon. I highly doubt that it will ever happen again. On a more serious note: I bungee jumped in Queenstown, New Zealand when I was 19.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I consider myself to be a lifelong learner. I love asking people questions and learning new things. I'm a qualified maths and English teacher, so if anyone needs some help in that regard, I'm at your service.
