About Me

I am currently travelling around Australia and New Zealand working on arts festivals in various capacities. I love to travel and explore new cities, my favourites so far have been Wanaca in New Zealand, Melbourne in Australia, Barcelona in Spain.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To become more part of the community, to live for as little as possible so I can travel as long as possible.

Interests

So many! At the moment hiking and being outdoors are a massive interest in my life. I love to walk round new places to explore them. I work in comedy, film and theatre so they are big passions in my life, and they also tend to coincide with good food and drink.

Music, Movies, and Books

Everything! I love Arcade Fire, Bruce Springsteen, but have been known to shove on some pop classics on a road trip.
Can happily sit and watch the entire LOTR, and Star Trek but also enjoy a good rom com.
At the moment just reading travel books but I love Neil Gaiman usually.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On a hiking trip in New Zealand, we did Avalanche Peak in Arthur's Pass. We worked as a team to get up, but on the way down I managed to slip and slid half-way down the mountain! My friend/angel slid after me and we both trekked back to the track and then down the mountain - in my injured/shocked state it took us 6 hours to get down! I can't believe we survived.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a trained TEFL teacher, and I love to cook and share food.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Food, passion for their city and the potential of free tickets to events I work on!
