Hi! My name's Kim, 24, London, England. I graduated in 2014 with a degree in Geography and Economics from Queen Mary University of London. I'm currently taking a career break for a couple of months, taking this opportunity to interrail around Europe, before working in the logistics industry.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am currently interrailing from 25/7 to 26/8 with a friend who I met up through the volunteering programme. I am hoping to meet locals and gain a traveling experience of a lifetime 😀

Interests

A big tennis fan! I live and breath tennis! I also love running and traveling and exploring new places

Music, Movies, and Books

Pop music, dance music. Also a huge Enya fan (my music tastes are very varied!)

Movies - love action movies, comedy.

Books - I used to work in public libraries for four years and absolutely loved been surrounded by so many different types books. I don't have a specific favorite book, but I am currently reading The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. I read a wide range of non fiction, from the History of London's night buses to the story of Ryanair.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volunteered in rural Tanzania with Raleigh International for 3 months (Feb- May 2016), working alongside young entrepreneurs to set up businesses in the dairy industry.
