I'm an ordinary bloke from the tiny island of Malta, now living in Spain while working as an English teacher. I'm quite reserved - what you'd call a wallflower. I don't really like posting about myself on social media, as I treasure my privacy. Having said that, I love conversing over drinks and food. I also enjoy tasting new flavours and exploring new places. I find it frustrating that an ordinary lifetime won't be enough for that.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I would like to meet locals of places I'm visiting, rather than stay at a hotel which can be quite impersonal. I want to have engaging conversations with people with ways of life different than mine. Basically I want to get to know interesting people.
