About Me

I'm happy (: And like to stay that way.

I'm also somewhat busy and tired most evenings, so expect me to want to stay in and eat my own food after getting back from whatever activity I had that day ✌️💙

Learning, connecting and exploring fuels me, so I try to keep these active in my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started couch surfing as part of my first big trip in 2015 - 3 months that started in Shanghai [ending 1 year working there] and ended in Johannesburg, ZA.

Hosting is the other half of the whole that makes couch surfing. I pride myself in being able to offer other travelers what they offer me, strangers leave friends <3

Interests

All the usual enjoyments. Also interested in international history and relations between countries and cultures.

Music, Movies, and Books

While hiking I frequently remember an old song I know and sing that. Otherwise I also enjoy getting new music from the places I travel.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camped on a remote beach in Hong Kong, it was lovely (:

Also enjoyed the Shirahama (Japan) onsen on the coast, having the waves crash into the onsen is amazing.

In Taiwan I hiked a dodgy little trail to a waterfall, fear of heights conquering.

House boats in Kerala, desert outside Dubai's limits, Ice festival in Harbin.. I'm only starting and I don't intend to stop.

Teach, Learn, Share

Some English, some travel tips, some life lessons, bit of dancing, whatever I can offer.

I'm no wise old man but now and then I stumble upon a few thoughts that might be worth your time as well.
