About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to live and conquer!

ABOUT ME

i love art, scribble constantly on everything. simple things make me happy, like seeing the little differences in different countries and cities. a hot coffee. acting stupid and laughing for no reason. I like to meet new people, though I can be shy at first or a little crazy. don't be put off! I still want to be friends.

PHILOSOPHY

get busy living or get busy dying, if you're not throwing yourself against the rocks whats the point?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i have hosted a few people in california, now stationed in berlin- i am a (former) au pair, hit me up for a drink or a look around town because I love this city!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

couch surfed all through northern ireland and the republic of ireland with two friends, now more?
yes more! been hosted by lovely people through holland, germany, poland, czech republic, and where next....?

Interests

art and books, I love food and I worked at a bakery so sweets are definitely it! I want to learn more languages than english and I'm working on that right now. i'm a total nerd for lord of the rings and sci fi stuff. activism is important, do what i can and ride a bike or take public transport wherever. I break, paint, make and climb on stuff. you should see.
