About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Sirsasana (headstand)

ABOUT ME

28 and mostly sunny. Born in China, grew up in Melbourne, and just returning home from a year living in Kathmandu! Favourite place in the world is Bundi in India, love different colors and patterns (think Jose Gonzalez in bouncy ball San Fran ad), and all about the little things in life, like Marimekko, okapis and my housemates strawberry tarts. Some times I meander about lifes questions, by reading books written by smarter people than myself.

PHILOSOPHY

Care.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the beginning of last year I was lucky to have had the best host in the world when I was travelling in Izmir Turkey (he knows who he is), last year I tried hosting which was really 100% positive for me and now since being overseas hopes to utilize CS and stay with a couple of friendly folk whilst travelling.
