Overview
About Me
Curious about the world with a thirst for travel. I love meeting new people and sharing stories and learning as much as possible about the world and other ways of living.
I am very easy-going and friendly. I am also very open-minded and will happily engage in discussion on any topic, as light as recent movies or TV shows to heavier topics like politics and religion. (I'm a bit of a sponge for random facts so I am sure there will be no shortage of things to talk about).
When it comes to living with me, I'm neat, tidy, clean and respectful. Rest assured that I am extremely conscientious and and will always go out of my way to make my stay as convenient and as easy as possible for my hosts who are so graciously housing me.

Music, Movies, and Books
Bit of a movie buff and love to discuss and breakdown movies over a beer or a coffee! My favourites are usually dramas or thrillers with captivating plots.
A massive Game of Thrones fan I will happily talk your ear off (or not if you would prefer ;)) about it or any other popular recent shows.

Teach, Learn, Share
I have a lot of experience travelling to different parts of the world. Would be delighted to share or swap adventure stories, travel tips, as well as engaging in all manner of worldly discussions!
What I Can Share with Hosts
Other than my friendly and warm attitude, fresh banter, and fantastic cleaning and washing-up skills. I also like to share my stories, extensive travel advice and perhaps some goodies from my home country, Australia (chocolate Tim Tams, Vegemite or a bottle of quality vino).
I'm not the best cook but I have one or two delicious dishes that I have specialised in. Or perhaps a night out?
