About Me

2) Librocubicularist
3) Dreamer

And obviously inattentive with the attention span of a nutcracker.

PS: It would be slightly worrying if I could sum my whole life in this tiny box!

Random fact about me: I'm a polydactyl.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was first introduced to CS by my roommate when I first moved to London- we hosted people in our shared room whenever we could get away with it. Everyone was a pleasure to meet and I simply fell in love with the idea of having a platform for people who want to see the world through someone else's eyes. Isn't this the best way to travel?

I've recently moved in with my boyfriend and he said he'll be more than happy to have guests around! But since we work long hours, we are only able to host during the weekends.

Interests

Reading (my favourite genre is fantasy- such as books written by Brandon Sanderson, Cassandra Clare, Garth Nix, etc) , photography, hiking, singing, cooking.

I have also picked up running recently and daydream about the day I'll finally write a book and/or play the violin again.

Music, Movies, and Books

Classical music, pop songs, musicals (my current favourites being Miss Saigon and Wicked)- and I'm not afraid to sing in public. This earns me a lot of stares on the streets of London!
