About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see the world, experience different cultures and to grow and mature as a person

ABOUT ME

Well, what to say. I'm an accountant (gasp!) with a love for life! I absolutely love travelling; the thrill of seeing new places, experiencing new things, meeting amazing people, devouring delicious food and immersing myself in different cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

There are no such things as good and bad experiences. They are all experiences to help us to learn and grow as a person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have done a lot of surfing with other people throughout Europe and North America. Hoping to get more involved at home in local events and hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been fortunate enough to have been hosted numerous times and have really enjoyed the experience. I find that meeting people who live in the place you are visiting, really enhances the experience because you can get to know the culture a lot better and you receive valuable information on the history, culture and social issues of the place. At the same time you get to meet a really awesome new people, from a completely different country to your own.
