ABOUT ME

Long introductions are for prog rock songs, so I'll keep it brief: I like eating, drinking and being merry; my favourite word in the English language is serendipty; I always have something to talk about.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Nobody needs to be alone. You can always find community, friendship and kindness wherever you are.

Interests

I like... literature; art; music; good conversation; dance; theatre; beer; etymology; spooning; being by the sea; semi-colons.
