Overview
About Me
ABOUT ME
I am different every day. Aren't we all?
I am pretty silly. Kinda all over the place with my interests and I am known for my spontaneity. Why be so serious when life can be so unexplainable, unexpected, and full of beautiful, beautiful, beautiful surprises?? Life is just too much fun to be serious about every little thing.
PHILOSOPHY
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I haven't been on Couch Surfing for awhile, but decided I should check it out again, and offer my time to show people traveling through Kuala Lumpur a good time with good people! I live here and know a lot about the area, so if you are traveling through Kuala lumpur and looking to go out, have a tour guide, go to a show, just send me a message and I will love to show you around.
I love to learn new languages and will be happy to share with you any of what I know of others. I love to do language exchange, so if you want to practice English and teach me more about your culture/language, well, that sounds like a good day to me.
Interests
Yoga! Jewelery making, Art, archeology, music, linguistics, anthropology, running, hiking, kayaking, climbing, sustainable living, being outdoors and most importantly, traveling! trying new foods, space and the universe.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: (almost) EVERYTHING! I love it all (except I don't particularly like loud, noise-based, "dub-step" music.) I listen to a lot of Joanna Newsome, Devandra Barnhart, CocoRosie, Andrew Bird, Purity ring, Santigold, MIA, Fleet Foxes, Manu Chao... classical, blue grass, folk,
Books: I think I am reading about 4 different books right now, everything from Cultural Ecology, to a plethora of Chuck Palahniuk books...
Read lots of Thoreaux, Howard Zinn, Noam Chomsky. One of my favorite books ever- The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan.
