CURRENT MISSION

Live big

ABOUT ME

News junkie, critic, enjoyment of culture and euphoric conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in an afterlife in the sense that we live on in the memories of the people we have touched and lived life with. It is a great thing, this torch that we carry within ourselves to pass on to the next generation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Although I cannot host because I live with conservative parents, I am more than willing to show you around my city!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I biked through England from London to Newcastle and stayed with several hosts along the way. I have never experienced so much love from people I have never met. What a wonderful community of loving and genuine people. Thank you CS!
