CURRENT MISSION To experience different ways of living ABOUT ME I'm Melissa, a 26 year old Eurasian. I grew up in Indonesia (where my mum's from) until I was 14, when I left for Perth, Australia. I completed high school there and earned my BA in 2012. Since then I've been travelling and seeing and experiencing the world. Ive lived in: Thailand (2 months) London (11 months) Toronto (10 months) Amsterdam (1 month) But now currently back in Perth for the time being, working as a bartender and studying maritime logistics. I believe that the people we meet are the ones who make our travels worthwhile.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I've loved being able to make friends from all over the world. Some places are great to visit as a tourist, staying at a hostel and spending time with other travellers but other places are great to see through the eyes of a local.

“I’m not sure what I’ll do, but— well, I want to go places and see people. I want my mind to grow. I want to live where things happen on a big scale.” - F. Scott Fitzgerald "What is that feeling when you’re driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? – it’s the too-huge world vaulting us, and it’s good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies." - Jack Kerouac
What I Can Share With Hosts
Stories of travelling and seeing and living in different places. I also bake some mean brownies. And I'll be happy to make you cocktails!
My Interests
Cinema, any type of music I can dance to, going all night dancing until I see the sunrise, going out to events, visiting cool pop ups, music festivals, bartending, cocktails, enjoying the outdoors on a nice day, photography, soaking in the atmosphere of a new city
