CURRENT MISSION

Improve my strength and flexibility - without injuring myself. Get together a showreel and apply for gigs as a (semi-)pro aerialist!

ABOUT ME

I am a 2nd year PhD student (studying the geology of Mercury) and an amateur aerialist (mainly doing rope and hoop, but also a but of silks) - slowly trying to go semi-pro! I have been taking evening classes for 2 years and performed my first routine (on hoop) in Sept, and worked on my first paid gig with a costume designer in November/Dec. Keen to do more, it was a great experience. I also work on contortion (when I don't have a torn hamstring), ballet and contemporary dance and occasionally play with poi, unicycle, hula hoop - I have all of these in the house if you also like to play with these things - but I'm not terribly good yet!

PHILOSOPHY

I try to waste as little of my life being unhappy or stressed as I can.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Started hosting last summer, had a fair few people stay with us. I've now moved out and my new place is too small to host so for now I'm just on as a (prospective) surfer :)

音乐、电影和书籍

My fav authors are Alasdair Reynolds, Peter Hamilton, Asimov. But I read SciFi and fantasy of almost any description.
My fav bands are Nightwish, Within Temptation and Delain. But my taste in music is wide, and excludes only the really irritating rap stuff about bitches and drugs
