ABOUT ME
I enjoy new experiences, learning new things, making people laugh, exercising, writing, being creative, collaborating, eating food with a strong flavour, reading, music, films, art, languages, karaoke, I hate grammar, snobbishness, pedantic people, authority ;)

I can be introverted and private when I need the downtime to recharge my batteries but generally, I am prosocial. I dance like a crazy person, I participate in improvised comedy and theatre, I've had lots of odd jobs and odd lives, I'm independent and can easily spend time in my own company.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to climb a mount temple for my birthday.

Interests

I love travelling, juicing myself in the local culture of a given place, meeting new people, dancing, singing, being silly, putting on accents, reading, writing, cooking, eating, playing dress ups, sundays reading the paper, chocolate, politics, listening to music or seeing a live band, a new experience, sky diving, anything wacky or out there, I'll try nearly anything once!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well this is a hard one! Sky diving would have to be one of the most exhilarating things I have done. Trekking the inpenetrable forest in Uganda to sit with mountain gorillas for an hour. Hitch hiking around Japan for two weeks being blown away by the hospitality and incredible kindness of the Japanese. So many other things I could add.
