About Me

I am currently backpacking around the world to 'see what's out there'. I am interested in writing, travelling and finance. I plan to travel to Japan until November and then go to Canada for a working holiday to repair my bank account.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing in order to meet new people from around the world during my travels so I can understand more about the people and the culture of the places I travel to. I also want to make new friends who can share their experiences and perspectives with me.

Writing, travelling, reading, eating, new languages and new cultures and meeting people during travelling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on exchange to Hong Kong Polytechnic University where I met people from all over Europe, America, Canada, UK and Japan. It was probably one of the best experiences I've had so far, being able to meet so many different and interesting people from different backgrounds. I hope to visit the friends I made during this trip and also make many more through couchsurfing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am able to speak English and Cantonese fluently and am currently trying to learn Japanese and can teach English and Cantonese words.
I am learning about Psychology and Finance and am interested in both fields.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my experiences growing up in Australia, living in Hong Kong and working in one of the biggest iron ore mines in Australia (out in the middle of nowhere).
