CURRENT MISSION

Help others out/make new friends

ABOUT ME

Hey, well, I've pretty much opted to go down the non academic route for the past few years but now am getting back into it but this time round making sure I'm really passionate about what I want to study - for the next few years it will be Fine art and art psychotherapy, at the same time as working and travelling the world. Hopefully one day I will have a studio where all these elements combine, as an artist, teacher and therapist.
Also, I want to practise Italian and Russian and my French has a lot of room for improvement - ameliorer - what?!! Pls help me anytime you want!

PHILOSOPHY

Independence, working hard, living life creatively but with goals in mind. Not having a so called 'proper job' is a wonderful thing! It has allowed me to have a meaningful experience and share positively with others from all walks of life, with young children and old people (who might also be young at heart!)
Freedom of expression. Standing up for what you believe is right, even if that means at a personal cost to oneself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, I'm kind of new on here and have only just started hosting…so I will see how my calendar fills up and of course I will have you when I can, but with full time study approaching then I will need a little bit of space too. You are free to come and go :)

Music, Movies, and Books

so many.
movies: I just have a general interest in the messages that directors want to share, and in all genres of film, drama, comedy, action.
Empire of the Sun
Midnight's Children
A Room with a View
Four Weddings and a Funeral
and many more

Books, most classics, Jane Austin is timeless, every time you re-read a novel you see something new.
I am a very slow reader, so if there is anything more contemporary you can suggest for me go ahead.
