About Me

I was originally born in Los Angeles but my family moved to Whakatane, New Zealand, when I was thirteen. Since then I have loved travelling and wanted to experience more of the world. I am pursuing a double major in English and Linguistics with the aim of becoming an English teacher.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My partner and I are planning a trip to Europe in the next few months. We would like to meet people while we travel and thought that this could be interesting to try. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music, but especially rock music. Reading is one of my favourite things to do. Some of my favourite books are Steppenwolf, The Little Prince, Notes from the Underground, Siddhartha, the Song of Ice and Fire saga, The Lord of the Rings, and Haroun and the Sea of Stories. I am also a bit of a Shakespeare geek.

Anime and manga have also been a big part of my life since I was young. The first manga I ever read was Yu Yu Hakusho, so it is quite close to my heart. Some of my other favourites include: Hunter x Hunter, Tokyo Ghoul, One Punch Man, Terror in Resonance, Ranpo Kitan, No Game No Life, Boku No Hero Academia, Attack on Titan, Death Parade, and Death Note.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a singer and guitarist so love to play music and have jam sessions with others. I also do special effects make up (zombies, face paint, etc), and am studying to become an English teacher. I also enjoy cooking and am more than happy to help out. :)
