About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live life, have fun

ABOUT ME

I love life!

I'm passionate about travelling and I like to try new things and challenge myself.

I like helping people and teaching.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short - follow your heart and just do those things that make you happy.

The happiest people don't have the best of everything - they just make the best of everything they have.

Treat others as you would like to be treated yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Am new to this, but after hearing friends talk about the wonderful people they've met and how they've really gotten to see a place from a local's perspective, so I wanna try this for myself!!

I'm travelling for a while right now, but when I'm back in Australia, I'd be happy to host or catch up.

Music, Movies, and Books

I absolutely love watching movies. My favourites are What's Eating Gilbert Grape, Napolean Dynamite and Boomerang

I like music in just about every genre and love Xavier Rudd and bands like the White Stripes and Arctic Monkeys.

Fave books are The Great Gatsby and The Grapes of Wrath.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hang-gliding over Rio de Janeiro is one of the most liberating, exhilarating and beautiful experiences I've had.

Some of the most rewarding times of my life have been when I was a preschool teacher. I love teaching kids and seeing their development of knowledge and their building of confidence. Guiding kids to discover their skills and talents in life is a great job!

Teach, Learn, Share

Ummm, lots of stuff - just ask!
