Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because I want to truly immerse myself within the culture of the place I'm visiting. I like to learn about the local culture, and visit local places.

I hope couchsurfing will provide me with an enriched experience of the world around me. I'd like to meet and share with people from all over the world. It world be amazing to make friends along the way.

Interests

I am the true definition of a serial hobbyist, my interests include oil painting, writing, knitting, photography, music, herbalism, urban exploring, hiking, reading, bookbinding, sculpting, travel, film, queer history, sewing my own clothes, playing with my cats, physics, cosmology, yoga, and many more.

I love to learn about new things and other people's hobbies!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
I have a passion for classical music, some of my favourite composers are Mozart, Vivaldi, and Chopin. I come from classic rock roots so any music genre from the 50s to the 90s are usually on my record player; blues, jazz, hard rock, you name it.

Movies:
I love classic horror films, documentaries, and a good satirical comedy.

Books:
I usually stick to the classics like Silvia Plath, Pablo Neruda, etc. I tend to read poetry, philosophy, true crime, literature, some fiction, and biographies. I read a lot so you'll have to ask me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once swam with a migratory pack of whale sharks in Mexico.

I hope to learn about others and true knowledge through travelling.

I hope to share my story.
