About Me

I am a 22 year Australian playwright/uni student on leave to explore Europe! I was living in Spain for the first half of the year and now living on the road. I am a friendly, well mannered, outgoing person who enjoys writing, exploring, hiking, trying new food and making new friends.

I love the concept behind Couchsurfing and as a new member, I am looking forward to discovering places from a local perspective. If there is one thing that has rung true during my travels it is that the people you meet are what you remember most.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent a night camping in the Sahara Desert, the experience was beyond words.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share stories, my paints, art and a healthy dose of puns.

I can teach English and some Spanish.

I am always down for learning other languages and about other people's lives. Learning is my endless passion.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you want to learn English or Spanish (I can converse in Spanish but I am still a long way away from fluency), I am up for a chat so you can practice your speaking skills. I am always happy to have company and equally as content to be respectful of your privacy. I always love sharing stories and a good laugh, guaranteed.
