I like to explore. I like to laugh. I try to be spontaneous but planning sometimes gets in the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm currently on a 2 months trip around Europe on my bike! I started in London and am aiming to end in Greece in September.

I've been camping up untill now, but I am looking for a host in Lausanne as I imagine camping won't be as easy to do in a big city. I am keen to cook, spend time with and explore the beautiful region with the host, but would also be happy to do this by myself if unavailable.

Interests

I like people watching. I like taking pictures. I like awkward moments. I like dogs. I like soccer during the world cup. I like snow. I like bathing in cold lakes. I like food - especially sweet stuff. I like bikes. I like the color green. I like friendly bus drivers. I like house plants.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - Recently I can't get enough of Tom Waits. I am also going to an Orchestral rendition of Rumours (the album) by Fleetwood Mac soon which I'm really looking forward to (update: I went to it and it was terrible). Oh and most importantly Shakira is the best.

Books - Currently reading: Hiking with Nietzsche. Big fan of Joules Verne (Journey to the Center of the Earth), Oscar Wilde (Picture of Dorian Grey), Ernest Hemingway (The Sun also Rises). The Little Prince is a classic feel good read! Stay away from A Little Life (Hanya Yanagihara) if you don't want to cry.

Movies - Lion, Leon and The Lion King are definitely in my top 10 list at the moment. I'm not lion to you :)
