About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To never sit still and hopefully live in a forest some day

ABOUT ME

A wide-eyed child, an out of work actress, a penniless writer, a perpetual loner, a buzzing crowd-lover, a quiet reader, a blind bat, a wise old bird, a silly little girl, an open minded lass, a failed artist, an over-protective sister, a practical joker, an awkward dancer, a desperate dreamer, a practising pescetarian, a kareoke winner, an awful sleeper, a morning monster, a confident wreck, a happy hunter, a wonderful liar, the worst poet, an optimistic lover, a terrible girlfriend, a 12 year old 21 year old, a simple loser, a working title, an attempting singer, a lazy employee, a hard worker, a prize idiot, a fierce friend, a brave comedien, a wary wanderer, a loving daughter, a classic fool, a daring player, a cultured cat, and a constant explorer. Basically I will be you worst friend or your best enemy, I'll follow you to the end of the world to protect you and kick you when you're down and I'll love you all the same. Let's be mates!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is squandered on those who are unhappy with their lot. If you don´t like your life all you have to do is change it. If I am ever unhappy, I know it´s time to get up and be on the move again.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
