Ah, yes, sorry, the default serializer in Django cannot serialise model instances as it's JSON-based: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/topics/serialization/
You can try switching to an alternate serialiser like pickle which does (but I don't recommend this), or just put the ID of the user into the session and then re-fetch it later on.
