Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To see and experience as much as possible!
ABOUT ME
I always find it hard writing things like these. Em... I couldn't live in a world without music and colour. I'd love to travel through time - I'd definitely go back to the 60's, go to Woodstock and see Jimi and probably travel around prehistory a bit. I would also love to go into space! I like looking off really high edges. I wish I could fly and I have an addiction to cakes. Sometimes I can be pretty quiet, I can be quite shy in groups until I get to know people, sometimes I can be pretty loud. I'm a bit of a romanticist.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm still relatively new to Couchsurfing so haven't done too much yet. While I was in Australia I went to a few events and met up with fellow couch surfers. I've stayed at a few people's places but haven't had a chance to host yet. Now that I am back home I plan to host, however I stay with my dad so I might not be able to as often as I would like.
Interests
I spend most of my spare time watching movies and going to the cinema. I like visiting museums and galleries, reading comics and novels and spending time in nature. I'm also sort of learning how to play the ukulele and how to knit.

Teach, Learn, Share
Hmmm, I could teach you some dance steps - what I remember from my tap, ballet, modern and jazz days. Some basic knitting stitches as i'm still learning myself. I can help you practice English.
I would like to learn how to fly a hot air balloon and to sail.
