Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love feeling at home in a city when I get there, what better way than meeting those who already love the place? Everyone has their own story, I love to hear new ones. Met so many brilliant people on the road. Here's to more of that.

Music, Movies, and Books
My favourite ever piece of music is 'Sinnerman' by Nina Simone, it stops me in my tracks every time. But I love all sorts from Mozart to Modeselektor.
Quentin Tarantino movies are great but Fifth Element is my favourite, closely followed by Silence of the Lambs.
I read lots of biographies and urban fantasy literature (Ben Aaronovitch, Neil Gaiman etc)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I'm stealing this from a dear beloved but... I can cook minute rice in just fifty nine seconds.
