About Me

I am a pretty easy-going person who likes to meet new people to laugh with. I have recently become interested in Permaculture, and environmental sustainability, and so have been travelling and volunteering at permaculture farms. I spent my teenage years skateboarding and playing guitar, but am not so good at either anymore :(
I have spent a lot of time living in other peoples houses, and so I am used to leaving no trace behind. I will always be clean, polite and respectful of your personal space.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Although staying in hostels is fun, couchsurfing provides a more complete experience of a new place. I love to meet local people and hear about their interests, lives, customs and traditions. I am always open to trying new things and think this is best done by spending some time with people in their 'natural habitat'.

Interests

I am very interested in learning more about the natural world, which I like to do by reading books but also talking to people and exploring places with people. If you have a strong passion for something else I would like to hear about it. I like to dance (I am no good but it's fun anyway), but also enjoy peaceful atmospheres.

Teach, Learn, Share

Happy to teach from my limited knowledge of permaculture and sustainability.
Can also teach some Mandarin if you are interested in going to China.
I can teach you a very fun card game, some basic guitar chords and how to skateboard (if you have one).

What I Can Share with Hosts

I really enjoy getting to know people and playing games, hiking, climbing or doing any kind of sport. I love to be outdoors but am also excited to explore some bars or fun places in urban areas. I am flexible in what I eat and drink.
