CURRENT MISSION

Explore, meet new people, learn new stuff, and contribute to a positive and caring community.

ABOUT ME

Over the last few years I've been working as an advocate at Women's Refuge. Started to feel overwhelmed after a while. I am working on replenishing my resources and hope by working a zero stress job and saving money to go exploring, try new things, and meet new people. I am vegetarian. Have two ginger cats called Nigel and Chompsky that I foster out because my boyfriend Paul is allergic. I have spent many hours on the net researching cures to cat allergies.

PHILOSOPHY

Too unformed to articulate.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My flat is very keen to host people. I hope to do more surfing when I travel later in the year.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couch-surfed in Melbourne. My flats have always hosted lots of people but not in an official couch-surfing capacity.

Interests

Interests: reading, hockey, bush walks, making up new recipes, making up jokes that make my friends cringe, drinking coffee, thinking about being creative, cats, learning from amazing and inspiring people around me, trying new things and then imagining I am awesome at them.
