Hey future friends, I'm Michelle, nice to meet ya :)
I hail from the tip-top of Australia, although I'm usually away more than I am at home. I really love people and I really love travelling... Like, a lot. If travel could be a pizza topping, I'd choose it for sureee!

The pie-chart of my life would be made up of me eating a lot of fries, listening to rap/hip-hop, attempting to skateboard, getting passionate about NBA, somehow having enough money to travel and generally being confused with life.. but it's a laugh so no worries!

I'm usually super relaxed and easy to get along with, I rarely get angry. I will get angry if you eat all my fries though. But jokes aside I'll be real with anyone that is real with me :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've had a lot of travelers stay with me and my family over the years so I just really enjoy the nature of couch surfing. Now that i'm the traveler it's cool to stay with all you rad locals!

Interests

Music, learning about people, travelling, NBA trash-talk, photography and skateboarding. That's pretty much what I'm about.

Music is just the best, I like to write a lot of my own music and muck around with it. I'm useless and never finish my songs but it's a good time anyways :)

I travel as much as I can so luckily I have been able to meet so many awesome people and do some really cool things. All you people are so rad!

As for skating: Skate. every. damn. day.

Music, Movies, and Books

My current car playlist goes a little something along these lines: Mac DeMarco, A Tribe Called Quest, Chopin, Childish Gambino, Al Green, Amy Winehouse, Frank Ocean, Run DMC, Mos Def, Bomba Estereo, K Dot, Smokey Robinson, Tame Impala and Sticky Fingers... to name a few. All great artists! Who wants to bop their head to some beats with me?

My favourite movie is The Hitchhickers Guide To The Galaxy but a few others I love include City of God, The Grand Budapest Hotel, The Departed, In Bruges, Step Brothers and a whooole lot more

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've not done anything amazing, I've just experienced amazing things. Usually because of people I've met along the way. Never would have made it to Machu Picchu if it weren't for my mate! Never would have moved to Spain when I was 15 if it weren't for my Dad... Hopefully me and you will do some amazing stuff to add to the list :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to teach anything I'm able to if there is a willing learner. And vice versa, I'm happy to learn nearly anything with a willing teacher. I have some stories to share and a lot of listening time to share so hit me up! :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer unlimited hugs - One size fits all :)

If that's not your style, I can offer you my true personality, respect and honesty. I can also help with cooking/cleaning/deterring wild animals and any other chore that may need to be done. I keep my things tidy and I'm nearly always up for a convo if you ever just want to have a good old chat!

aaand.. I can cook a rad lasagna fyi
