CURRENT MISSION

To be in the moment

ABOUT ME

I try to live open-minded and open-hearted. I care about the planet we live on and the people (and animals and plants) that live on it! I want to learn about other people's experiences, and share my own. I can be fun and outgoing but also relaxed and contemplative. I believe in respect, empathy, and honesty.

(I'm also vegan.)

PHILOSOPHY

I really believe in the significance of living true to your morals. I believe in celebrating life and being joyful, but without being ignorant to suffering - I believe in doing what is possible to make life better for everyone and everything!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm relatively new to couch surfing, but I've hosted three times and stayed as a guest once so far. I love traveling and meeting new people. I think couchsurfing is a great way for people to help each other on their travels, and to share valuable local insights to one another's cultures.

Interests

Art, music (I learnt the piano for many years), dancing, yoga, touch football, jogging, being outside (walking, hiking, cloud-watching, star-gazing), reading, films, social and environmental activism...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was swimming in the ocean, watching the sunrise (somewhere in Miami) a couple of years ago and a pod of dolphins started swimming with us! Best sunrise ever. AMAZING!
