CURRENT MISSION

i am on a mission to see as much of the world smile as i can manage in my little lifetime

ABOUT ME

i don't know much about myself except i have a restless personality, i appreciate ordered chaos and i love spending my time with my friends .. this is a pretty strange time in my life to be trying to explain "all about me" but let's just say, to quote a dear friend of mine -

"i don't fear death, i crave life, and the difference is infinite.."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

at the minute i'm not much of a participant to CS because i'm not travelling anywhere and i don't have a place of my own to invite people to, but when i return to London it will be a different situation, and at the end of the academic year in June i'll be ready to travel again .. i'm good at cleaning up (:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

only one thing .. it wasn't much, but being still young it will do for now .. with a group of friends in the UK, i was involved in a lock-on outside an immigration detention center near Heathrow, we cancelled a chartered flight to Iraqi Kurdistan and prevented the deportation of around 50 prisoners .. definitely the kind of action i want to do again ..
