I'm a nerdy, go-with-the-flow, fantasy loving bookworm who's ultimate dream is to live in a treehouse somewhere in a forest. Ideally there's a creek involved.

I am extremely easy going and low maintenance, and love meeting new people over a glass of wine or on top of a mountain. I have a very wide and eclectic range of interests, so chances are I'll find something in common with almost anyone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm spending my time moving from place to place teaching English, and I need to meet new people wherever I go as well as (more often than I'd like) make last-minute housing arrangements.

Interests

Lord of the Rings (books and movies), Hayao Miyazaki, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, hiking, camping, music of any genre, good conversation, the occasional philosophical read, taking recommendations from people and loving them in my own way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent two weeks in Boujdour, a refugee camp in the Western Sahara, filming interviews with various families to learn about their past and to collect local stories. It was fantastic.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will be happy to teach you English, whether it's help with the spoken language or help working on writing (both of which I have some experience doing). I love to watch movies with people, and I although my list of actual life skills is pretty small, I'm eager to help with anything I can.
