About Me

I absolutely love meeting new people and hearing about different cultures and perspectives on the world. I believe that there is something to learn from everyone, and that discovering cultures is always best with someone who can answer the (numerous) questions I always seem to have. I am pretty open minded and willing to try new things, and am always willing to go exploring in new places. I love hiking and being out doors, and I'm slowly learning how to enjoy aspects of cities as well, although it doesn't come quite as naturally.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Im couchsurfing because I've heard about it from too many people I trust wholeheartedly not to be. I was a little skeptical about the idea of meeting or staying with strangers, until I realized that this is exactly what we do in real life, so why not give it a chance online as well. I also love the idea of getting the chance to explore somebody's hometown with them, as I know how much I love showing people around my home town and how many cool places I know, that definitely would not come up on a trip advisor list.

Music, Movies, and Books

My top artists would probably be the Glass Animals, Arctic Monkeys, Alt J, Hosier, Billy Joel, Leonard Cohen. I love music from the 60s through the 90s, classic rock, tropical house, instrumental, and pretty much every genre.
Favorite books would be the alchemist by Paulo Coehlo, anything by Eckhart Tolle, the MaddAddam trilogy by Margaret Atwood, the Witcher by Andrzej Sapkowski, Illusions and One by Richard Bach. I recently discovered that i really enjoy World of Warcraft fan fiction as well as the Jurassic Park book series.
Movies are definitely hugely consisting of Disney and Pixar, anything Tarantino, Tim Burton, Woody Allen, and Wes Anderson.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I always used to look at articles of people traveling and doing what they want to do. To me, the most amazing thing I've ever done is move to Spain after finishing University and start a life here. I've been so fortunate to be able to travel regularly and meet people from all around the world, and I can't imagine going back home until I get my fill.
I've also gone ice climbing on Andermatt, in the Swiss Alps which is pretty cool :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I love asking and answering questions because I believe its the best way to show genuine interest, and learn about others.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have thousands of stories that hopefully we both find to be amusing. I will cook for you and can guarantee that I will laugh at all of your jokes, as I think almost everything is funny. I love sharing my experiences and stories as well as hearing new ones
