CURRENT MISSION

To live, love and travel the world.

ABOUT ME
I love to laugh, I love to dance and be spontaneous...go anywhere I've never been before. At the same time I'm very contemplative and love interesting, intelligent conversation.
I am a former journalist and newspaper editor but during the lockdowns I changed direction and trained as a Pilates instructor. I opened Corryong Pilates Studio in October 2022 and still do a bit of freelance writing.
I love travelling and having the freedom to go with the wind.
My children are now adults with kids of their own so my life is mine again.

PHILOSOPHY

Hmm - that's big.
You have one life, go live it.
I believe in God and the Bible and love contemplating life and the universe.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I first Couchsurfed in California in 2009 with my 3 teenage boys. Had a fantastic time and met some truly great people. I hosted quite a few Coushsurfers when I last lived in Victoria and in Rockhampton, Qld.
It's been great fun.
I haven't been able to host for the past few years and have just reconnected with the Couchsurfing world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had a brilliant time Couchsurfing in USA and although I thought there wouldn't be too many visitors to Corryong we had quite a few from Australia and around the world.
