Rachel, 23, Australian Currently studying at uni and doing my best to make the most of time off when I get it. I travel a fair bit so am super flexible, used to rolling with the punches and very poor BUT rich in happiness! I'm super easy-going, friendly and love meeting new people to have weird and wonderful adventures with. I've never used couch surfing before, but have heard great things so want to get on board (lol puns).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot, and don't have a lot of funds because I'm a full time student and don't get time off to work.

I also really enjoy meeting new people, everyone is so different and has something to teach you.

Interests

Love being outsides so hiking, camping, basking in the sun etc.

I also can never turn down a good place to boogie.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Very dependable on what type of mood I'm in, but can never turn down some Kygo.

TV: trashy teen drama in addition to some thoughtful documentaries/stand-up comedy sprinkled throughout.

Books: The Bronze Horseman - if you haven't read it, you haven't lived.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Over summer, I hiked to everest base camp while I was in Nepal. We arrived at base camp on new years day, it was about -20, overcast and I could barely feel my extremities. Overnight there was a huge snow fall, and the sky cleared up - the views were insane and the snow on the ground sparkled like glitter. Probably one of my all time life highlights.
