About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Express and experience life to its vibrant extent.

ABOUT ME

I'm a Physical theatre student who also happens to love technology. I like to spend time exploring- both urban and nature. To wander with a purpose...usually that is to be with myself and surrounding. I'm striving to find a balance between the world in my head and the world around me. I get overjoyed.I've spent a lot of my time as an activist and am very passionate about human right as well as politics. I quite welcome the chance for my mind to opened and my beliefs challenged and expanded. "If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe." -Carl Sagan'But I dont want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked. 'Oh, you cant help that,' said the cat: 'We're all mad here I'm mad, you're mad.' 'How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice. 'You must be' said the cat, 'or you wouldn't have come here.' -Lewis Carol

PHILOSOPHY

"We are all born for love. It is the principle of existence, and its only end." -Benjamin DisraeliThriving vs. surviving- being simply content is death.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Over this summer I had an amazing adventurer going around England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. What made this experience so magical was meeting people and creating lasting friendships. Having received so much generosity throughout my travels I'm happy to open up my new(!) home to fellow surfers.

So far i've only been hosted but it's been nothing but fantastic. I've made friends, had crazy adventures, laughed to the point of tears, had mentally stimulating conversations, found myself on random road trips, baked pie, relaxed and chilled.Make my hosting experience a great one!

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Polgara the Sorceress by David Eddings , Memoirs of Cleopatra by Margaret George and The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress by Robert A. Heinlein stand out as fantastic reads.
Shakespeare of course is fantastic. I'm partial to Hamlet and have a strong distaste for Romeo and Juliet. I have a lot to say on Shakespeare/ Renaissance,Oscar Wilde (badass).

Tv shows:
I'm more partial to TV shows than movies (I consider myself pop culture illiterate). Dr.Who, Slings and Arrows, Lie to Me, White Collar, Human Target, Blackadder, The Riches, True Blood, Firefly, Dead Like Me, Weeds, Cowboy Bebop. I tend to get obsessed with a TV show and watch its entirety in about a week.

Movies:
Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind, Wall Street, The Dead Poet Society
