CURRENT MISSION
My current mission is to travel and surf as much as possible before becoming a dietitian in September. The next destination is Bali in April (yeeeew!), after that I'll see whatever country pops up in my head - surprises and mind changes are definitely not excluded!

ABOUT ME
My name is Aileen, but most people know me as Lini. I think some of my friends doesn't even know my real name is not Lini, so call me simply the name you like more :)

I live to travel, surf and meet people. I love to laugh and exchange good stories and adventures. I like being a funny, bubbly person, but also enjoy being the quite listener from time to time.
I'm horribly bad in making decisions when it comes to my future life. I went from an economic high school to an English literature student and now end up becoming a dietitian...that's the plan at least. However, the only time I'm sure I'm doing the right thing is on travels.

I have a favour for patterned socks and go crazy when I see baby turtles! I love breakfasts!! And could easily skip a main dish for two desserts - so if you wanna see me smile you know what to do...

PHILOSOPHY
Travel. Money returns. Time doesn't.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing brings the world together. Great people meet in random places and can experience how others live and travel - who doesn't want to be part of it?

Interests

I found the love and thrill to travel in Australia and I got even more hooked up with exploring the world when I stood on a surfboard in Sri Lanka. Since then travelling and surfing are what I focus on
