About Me

ABOUT ME

Easy going Aussie, tea and wine drinker, bike rider, music lover, ocean girl, art and photography. You can see my photography work here: www.laniholmberg.com

PHILOSOPHY

Share and give and say 'yes', and the world is usually pretty kind to you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

WHY?

Great way to meet people. Keep the good traveller-karma going around the world.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm very independent, not looking to be babysat during my travels but hoping to meet some open-minded people to share a meal or a wine with at the end of the day. I'll be working on photography projects most of my time in Europe so will be out and about meeting people and researching. Will probably pick your brains.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm quite new to the platform itself but loving it so far. Have stayed with three people and plan to keep CS the rest of this year. The idea of the sharing economy is one I full support. I have travelled extensively on my own and often have people I've met stay with me in Melbourne (if they make it all the way way way down to Australia). I have also lived with lots of different people and think (hope!) I'm good company to have around :)

Interests

Photography, documentaries, gardens, play piano & sing a little, Green Earl Grey (the tea of teas), walking, cycling, dancing, swimming.
