CURRENT MISSION

To see as much as I can

ABOUT ME

I am a student of languages, any language. I love to learn new words, even in a language I haven't yet started! I love to meet people, everyone has an interesting viewpoint on the world, even if it differs from my own, and I am open to hearing about it. I intend to keep travelling, moving from one encounter to the next. I love art, classical and contemporary, any music that will move you and literature which will reflect part of our complex internal or external landscapes.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't dismiss anything without thought or reason, there's no faster way to find yourself isolated in the world, and what doesn't make sense right now might move you in the future.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first few days in any new city leave me speechless. I have stumbled upon art exhibitions, attended intimate performances of poetry and theatre, walked along a pilgrim's route through the mountains, taken a boat across a beautiful lake to university and had coffee in a rain storm. It's difficult to faithfully describe some of the best moments that have marked my memories of travelling and living in different countries, but I love to try.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll happily chat in any language I know now and am willing to give other languages a go.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd love to share a new recipe, sing and discuss burning questions on just about any subject or simply reflect upon the world around us.
