CURRENT MISSION

My mission in life is to be the best person that I can be - I look to learn something extraordinary from every person I meet!

ABOUT ME

I'm very easy going and laughing is my favourite thing to do in the whole world! I love my life, my Husband Ben and our two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels Loki and Baxter.

After becoming unemployed in 2012 I took time off to travel Europe, The United States of America and Canada between May and August. I came back home with a new zest for life and found a PA job that I love working in the Insurance industry.

PHILOSOPHY

Cliché as it is - Everything in life happens for a reason. If you stress out, situations seem much worse than they actually are, so just take a deep breath - everything will be ok!

Most importantly, treat people how you want to be treated. No one ever gets anywhere in life being a nasty person!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I stayed on a couple of couches throughout my tour of the US and Canada in July and August 2012. I did hope to stay on more but did not hear back from alot of people that I sent requests to.

After I returned home in August 2012 I hosted a few couch surfers in our home, although not able to as much these days I do try and reply to all requests efficeintly!

Interests

I love postive people that don't take things to heart easily. - just going with the flow and rolling with the punches is the way I prefer to be!

I love the outdoors, especially camping. There is nothing more relaxing to me than to pack up the car and head up to the beach or the bush for a weekend to camp.

In 2012 I discovered what it actually means to live my life to its full potential and as a result have a very real perspective on what life should be all about - find something extraordinary in the ordinary every day!

The ultimate way I love to spend my time is in the kitchen, I love cooking and baking, I'm constantly open to trying new foods and new recipes, I have so many recipe books, and they all get used!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm very diverse, love ALL kinds of music from Pop to Rock to Country, Jazz and Classical.

I'm not a fan of the horror Genre but everything else I'm happy to watch.

I love reading and of late I particularly love reading books set in foreign cities that I have travelled to.
