UPDATE:
Since first joining couchsurfing I've made some major changes in life. I know live in the big city of London, work as a Librarian (my dream job), and sadly don't travel and meet new people outside of London. I am getting back into couchsurfing to help change this last little fact.

Hello!
I am a recent graduate (for the second time) and after having a highly stress-filled two years of study and life I have decided the best remedy would be to travel and see something of the world.
I set out to travel Europe and figure out my future. I have till Oct 2015 to see as much as I can on a very limited (I pinched and saved during my school days to even afford to make it this far) budget. I am travelling by myself, and so far the experience has been great. Relaxing, but also full of new people and adventures.
I'm lucky to be able to have a variety of experiences. I have some family and friends that I have visited, I have wwoofed in a few places, shared travel wonder with other tourists in hostels, sublet flats to immerse myself in particular cities for longer periods, and of course -surfed on couches to make new friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Re: Student and student lifestyle.
But I'm not a student anymore! And as I make the transition once again from Student to Real World I want to make sure that this time I have the opportunity to grow through meetings with new people, and experience/learn things that can help shape me.

Interests

I love to read, dance, people watch, watch films, discuss films, enjoy all kinds of music -live and recorded. I love to sing and often will whistle to myself while walking about town. I sketch. Albeit poorly, but I am trying to improve my skills while travelling. I also enjoy photography, but I only have my old film camera.
I also love hanging out and chatting over a good drink (hot or cold) and telling really bad jokes. On the flipside, I always appreciate a good conversation about politics or social matters, as it's one of the best ways to share ideas and to learn new things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm not sure. I think it would depend on what one's idea of Amazing is.

But I'm living. That's kind of a cool thing in and of itself, no?

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not sure what this section is intended for. I will look at some other profiles and then update this. Sorry.

*Update* I've looked at other profiles, but I'm still not sure how to best answer this question. It seems simultaneously to be too broad and too limiting. Talk to me in person and I'm sure over a good conversation these topics will start to take shape in some way.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a good cook. Especially when it comes to baked goods. So I could bake you things. I love to cook a good simple meal and have conversation with peoples while doing it, so if you like having a relaxing time cooking and conversing I'm your girl.
I'm always up for things. A "yes" man type of person.
I love to laugh and because I somehow find myself in silly situations often, i usually have good stories and times making people laugh.
I'm a good cleaner and helper. I keep things tidy and if you need a hand with doing the dishes or cleaning up after a party I'm a reliable person for that.
