About Me

Next stop: Canada! Either working to travel or travelling. Currently travelling with my sister. We've just spent the last two years travelling Europe in a campervan and then we spent last winter in Asia. I've lived in Australia for two years and in 2016 I spent 5 months travelling completely penniless around all 48 mainland US states (Check out pretenniless.wordpress.com to read all about it!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it is the best thing ever. I've had so many amazing couchsurfing experiences. It's such a good way of seeing new places from a local's perspective and sharing different cultures!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Australia, China, Philippines, Germany, Scotland and USA.

I've not hosted yet (sadly!) but me and my sister are planning to host when we find our own place.
