Hi, I'm Lydia.

I am currently studying at university, I have a passion for traveling and meeting people through trusting the world to be a good place. I've couch surfed mostly in Japan.

I would describe myself as friendly, chatty and excited to make experiences or friendships. I love cooking, taking care of animals and drawing art.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm currently travelling on a small budget, to live out my dream of living in Japan for 6 months. I'm slowly making my way there, but need to save money as much as I can.

Interests

I like learning new things and challenging myself to overcome my fears. For example, I never thought I'd become a builder - but I ended up working as a trainee builder for 3 months.

Two years ago I challenged myself to become vegan and it changed my life. I found a new passion for cooking and enjoying unique foods.

I like experimenting with different types of art

• cooking
• vegan
• traveling
• art
• eco building

Music, Movies, and Books

"Feel the fear and do it anyway" is my favourite book.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Earlier this year I hitch-hiked from Bucharest, Romania to the bottom of Greece. I wild camped in forests over the course of a week.
It was the scariest but most thrilling thing I've ever done.
