About Me

Hi, my boyfriend and I have just relocated from Newcastle, Australia to Letchworth, U.K. We are excited to be here and plan to make the most of weekends by travelling.
I have previously lived in Belgium and travelled a little in France and speak French moderately well. For us it is fantastic to have the ability to visit so many countries with just a couple of hours travel.
We both enjoy board games, jokes, food, and people.
Please ask to stay if you would like to stop over in Letchworth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I grew up in a family that was constantly hosting backpackers and WWOOFers (see wwoof.com.au). Also, the absolute best way to get the most out of a place is learning from people who can give you all the insider knowledge.
My first couch surfing get together was a picnic in Paris on the 10/10/2010 and it was great fun. I think people who participate in couch surfing are the best and I spread the word about this site as often as possible. :)

Languages, I would love to learn a number of languages. Currently I'm confident with French and have done some beginner courses in Auslan and Japanese.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all different kinds of music. I grew up with a lot of folk music, I enjoy dancing to rockabilly style music, and I like a whole bunch of modern bands.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trapeze, I am scared of heights and it was the most fun.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Australian slang :D
I'm also ok at piano, poi, and yoga poses.
How to do a cartwheel? - this at your own risk :P
I will share my delicious vegimite.

I would learn anything you would like to share or teach.
Cooking, dancing, language, new world views.

A great meal, great conversation, board games (if you can handle the trash talk).
