ABOUT ME

Born and raised in Vancouver, Canada, currently living in China to study Chinese. Have difficulties describing my own personality in a small box, doesn't everyone?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Ive surfed wıth some fantastıc people and have had experıences that would never have happened wıthout couchsurfıng.

Interests

Travelling! But that's probably the same as everyone on CS. I love making things, although I usually get distracted halfway through. I like reading, cooking, watching movies, (when someone can convince me to sit still in front of a TV screen for 2 hours, which is not often) good beer, taking trains, the beach.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: too many to list, I love music from the 60s, so Janis Joplin, the Doors, the Beatles, etc. Tom Waits, the Arcade Fire, Feist, Timbre Timber, the National, the Dead Boys, Iggy and the Stooges, Talking Heads the list goes on...

Movies: Anything that keeps me thinking afterwards. Waltz with Bashir, Hunger, Taxi Driver, and Another Earth are a few I've seen recently and loved.

Books: too many to list

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Attempting to travel overland from Hong Kong to Poland. We ended up getting a plane over Kazakhstan, but hey, it was still pretty amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I can teach you how to knit a sock and make origami swans.

Learn: Right now I am trying to learn Chinese. I just started learning to play the violin as well, to the great dismay of everyone within earshot.

Share: I can share stories! But don't put me on the spot, I'll forget them all.

FINALLY: If you're viewing profile because you'd like to request to stay with me, please start your message with "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..."

This will show me that you actually read my profile ;)

ALSO PLEASE NOTE THAT COUCHSURFING IS NOT A DATING WEBSITE. If you're using CS for these reasons, please keep in mind that you're probably making other CSers reluctant to continue using this website to meet people on a friendly basis, and this also makes many people feel less comfortable with hosting. This has an overall negative effect on our community for ALL of us.
