About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See 100 countries & meet some interesting new friends along the journey

ABOUT ME

I am an active mature lady who loves life & wants to make the most of every day. Traveling & seeing new places & meeting new people is one of my passions along with reading, seeing movies & live theatre & going for an hour run each morning.
I'm currently home after a 6 month adventure travelling around the world & staying on my first couch!

PHILOSOPHY

I believe life is to be lived, to contribute by adding value to yourself, others & the world & to embrace & love all of the afore mentioned.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hope to surf a few couches over the coming year & offer to meet up with visitors to Sydney & maybe have a couch available.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Spent a few wonderful days on the couch of a fellow train traveller we met in Norway. He was studying in Paris & took us for a day walking tour of Paris. Think we must have walked 15km over the day because we slept so well that we didn't here him leave for work the next morning!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have climbed Uluru, completed a skydive & run a couple of times in the famous Sydney City to Surf fun run.
Travelled from India to London on an old London double deck bus, that was a long bus ride!
I was privileged to see a space shuttle launch many years ago.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach people how to organise their finances effectively to gain optimal value.
I am able to teach English as a language to non English speakers.
I would like to learn a language other than English
I would like to learn more business skills
I can share my experience of losing a partner through death & journey to understanding myself as a single person again.
