Hello! I'm a writer, actor and filmmaker who takes off with my backpack whenever possible! I love learning languages, eating Chinese food, drinking beer and meowing at my two cats.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet other travellers and make friends around the world, with the possibility of practicing my Japanese and Korean. I would love to show people around my little city (especially the glorious beaches), or to get a local's eye view of new and wonderful places.

Interests

Travel? Maybe that's a bit obvious. Also reading and writing, hiking, swimming in the sea, beer, FOOD and movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can only pick one?! In Iceland I snorkelled in the Silfra, wearing sleeping bag onesies inside dry suits to keep out the cold of 2 degree Celsius water. It was so clear, the visibility was over 180 meters!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am considering qualifying to teach English as a second language and would be very happy to practice English with guests or hosts. Likewise, I would love the opportunity to practice Japanese and Korean with guests or hosts.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Language practice, story swapping, the promise that I won't leave a mess, and can cook a mean dinner for you!
