Overview
About Me
Graduation thrust me into unemployment and I had to retreat to my parents’ crib for now. I unfortunately can’t host at the moment until get a place of my own again.
A friend recommended Couchsurfing and I thought I’d try it out as well. Have mostly been using it to see what events are happening and to connect with locals during my travels. My favourite experiences so far have been Ceilidh dancing in Edinburgh and Glasgow.
Recently graduated from a molecular biology programme and have since then contracted a much needed case of travel bug: been Interrailing around Europe, largely by myself, and it has been the very best experience. (Thank you Greta Thunberg for the inspiration and for your activism!). Given up all flight travels. Current aspirations include going fully vegan and plastic-free, as well as becoming a fiction author.
My idea of an adventure ranges from taking a midnight walk in the rain to bungy jumping into a pond. I’m up for mostly anything. I especially enjoy busting moves on the hip hop/RnB dance floor at the club, and walking around to explore a new city. But discoveries by walking are limiting, and that’s where You come in; hopefully you’ll indulge me into the city life.
I don't smoke, if that matters. Hate it. And I only get high on life. #cheesy
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Great way to meet other like-minded, free-spirited friends; makes your solo-travels less lonely. Best way to explore a new place is to hang out with a local.
