About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to travel to discover new things and to meet new people.

ABOUT ME

Travelled for a fews years after finishing school, a year in asia, a year in europe, Mainly working on farms and in communities.
I've been an labourer, bike mechanic, massage therapist, did some social work, I am currently a registered nurse.

I consider myself to be a nice person, I am relativelly sociable, depending on the amount of sleep ive got in me. I love being. doing stuff, or doing nothing.. reading, playing music ( harmonica), doing art, gardening, partaking in a good conversation.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All good!

Interests

so first, music.. I love listening and playing music, harmonica is my instrument of choice, but I'm currently trying to learn the banjo.
cooking. I'm a gluten free ( celiac... Just in case you were thinking i'm into the gluten free fad for the fun of it...I'd much rather eat bread, I just can't..) vegetarian (used to be vegan), witch pretty much means I've got to cook alot for myself, but I truly enjoy it, trying new recipes all the time, experimenting with a lot of fermented foods.
Talking of fermentations, I brew a lot of alcohol, wine, cider, meads, gruits, I've done beers for friends, and spirits too.
Art.. I used to study in fine arts. I've always loved to draw, sculpt, paint and basically do stuff with my hands. Drawing is really what I've been practicing more of late.
I also love gardening, and anything that has to do with plants...literally.
Mycology is also a big interest of mine, I've been part of a mycology collective for two years where we did interior cultures. And mushroom hunting is one of my big passion.
did a lot of farm work and consider myself knowledgeable in the domain of permaculture.
Fixing bikes is also an interest of mine, repairing beaten up machines.
apart from that I love being outside, camping and such, being close to nature. Anywhere thats far out in the woods.
traveling in general, discovering new places in the world.
I enjoy talking to people, listening to stories and sharing my own. I like philosophy, politics,


I love a good glass of wine and good company.

There's nothing better than sitting on the side of a riverbank in the woods, friend by my side.
