About Me

I like to meet local people when I travel. I think it's the best way to really get to know a country not just for its sights and food.

I've had some really fantastic experiences in the Burmese jungle and spending new years in the villages in Chiang Mai because I had friends there. I've also managed to roam Ulaanbaatar in Mongolia with a tour guide who became my friend.

Otherwise, I sometimes travel just to relax and do nothing. And I usually don't couchsurf then.

I'm currently a master's student and may not be able to travel much from next year on.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'll be happy to show people around, being hospitable is something I love to do. I can't host a couch at the moment but hope to do so in the future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couch surfed in Stirling, Scotland before. For some reason, it doesn't show up here. I've met really cool people at a CS meetup in Madrid in Spain.

Music, Movies, and Books

I read a lot from fiction to non fiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There's so many. Teaching English in the jungle. Jumping off a 12m cliff onto the water despite not being an adrenaline junkie and more of a bookworm...

Teach, Learn, Share

Always happy to learn and happy to teach.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm usually quite friendly and up for a chat, unless I'm tired or uncomfortable. I'm fairly well traveled in some regions and can share my experiences, although my memory isn't the best 😁
