我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I want a free place to stay and to steal all your food...just kidding. Unless...

I've been on couchsurfing for almost 10 years! 10 years! When I first started, I was 20 years old and backpacking around Europe. Doing the classic Australian "10 month-long backpacking trip". I was struggling with deeply connecting with people in hostels and discovered couchsurfing. Cue: my life completely changing from that point out!

Couchsurfing has taught me SO much. About trusting people, hospitality, respect, friendship, and authenticity. I've honestly met some truly lovely lifelong pals from couchsurfing and am so grateful I started couchsurfing in my early 20s!

兴趣

I love a lot of things and am a pretty busy person with all of my interests and hobbies!

I journal and write daily and teach creative writing classes. I love and hate writing.

I love being outside. I love hiking, camping, and spending time in nature. I am kept sane via walks in the forest and swims in the pool or ocean. I'm really getting into going to the sauna.

I love music! I'm currently learning guitar, banjo and drums! I played ukulele for many years but guitar is my latest love.

I'm a low-key foodie. I love cooking, especially elaborate meals, when I have the time. I've been vegan since 2013 and can swing my way around a kitchen! One of my favourite things is having wine and a yarn with a pal/s whilst cooking a meal!

MOVIES - I'm definitely more arthouse and indie inclined, but I love a good romcom on a burnout kinda day. I go pretty hard during the film festival (last year's record was 17 films). I can't pick a favourite film but I do enjoy my David Lynch, Richard Linklater and Wes Anderson.

BOOKS - I love to read and am aiming for 32 books this year. You can check out my Goodreads, in general, I love a good fiction book but also get down for anything that makes me learn something new - https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/42342205-anna
