ABOUT ME

I like being outdoors, whether I'm surfing or playing soccer, or reading or studying.I like learning new things, which at the moment translates to changing what I'm studying at uni regularly, or rather constantly adding to what I'm studying!I like talking to people, but I also like listening to them, because people often have lots of interesting things to say. I do enjoy the odd (however tends to be frequent) ridiculous conversation about nothing or everything in which you're not really sure where you started, what you're trying to get at, or what you're actually talking about at all. They are always the most entertaining.

PHILOSOPHY

I see so many beautiful and interesting people and things in the world without even trying. Imagine what you can find when you make the effort.Be nice to people because one day you might run into someone with super powers who will zap you if you're mean.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couch surfed once before in Mexico, while I was travelling with my brother. It was so much fun and an awesome way to meet local people.

Interests

Surfing, football, snowboarding, reading, collecting paints and crayons with the strong belief that one day I will acquire the skill to use them.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love books. There is endless enjoyment in books.I am a very uncritical movie watcher (unless they are horror and then they universally unimpress me)I like lots of different types of music, which I generally get from other people who are more proactive than me in seeking out new music. A range of sources means I have a range of music interests though!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing experiences I have ever had involved a pretty simple situation.I was sitting on the top of a mountain about 3000 metres high in Oaxaca, Mexico with my brother. We were the only people there and it was night time, and all we could see was distant lights of cities and little towns throughout the mountains. It was cloudy but there was a ring of clear sky above us and lightening would sometimes flash across the sky. And we were eating the most amazing Mexican chocolate!

Teach, Learn, Share

Showing people things you love is always fun (and slightly scary in case you have to realise that some of the things you love are not THAT cool)I like showing people places I think are amazing and books that I love to read. I also like to listen to things that other people have done, particularly whilst travelling because it gives me ideas and makes me excited!I find people that are very passionate or knowledgeable about a subject the most interesting people to learn from.I can bake really good muffins, and am always happy to share the skill or just the muffins. I can teach you to surf or play soccer (at least as well as I can, which would only take about a day)
