About Me

Curious about the world and the people in it. I want to meet with as many people as possible and learn about about different cultures. Staying still is not for me - there is so much out there to experience. I'm currently in the process of applying to hostel jobs across Europe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to know what it's like to live in another place and do things the locals do. Who knows, I may decide to live there one day.

Interests

Music, playing guitar, song writing, exploring, reading (audiobooks), racquet sports, swimming, socialising.

Music, Movies, and Books

Rock, dance, 70's & 80's funk/soul.
Love non-fiction books. My favourites are Sapiens, The Silk Roads, Prisoners of Geography, and Why We Sleep.
Movies, don't really watch a lot. Would rather educate myself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveling from the Thai mainland to Koh Tao with a group of Canadians at 6am. Sitting on the front a small boat playing/singing Oasis songs, whilst watching the sunrise.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have so much information to share. You'll find out.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm not shy, I'm easy to talk to, and I'm a good listener. Im up for most things (but no drugs). Whilst surfing, I am happy to cook some good food for you, drink, and be merry. I'll also buy the ingredients. It's the least I can do for a free couch.

I would also be very happy to help those learning English or guitar, or both. Would like to put in some quality time each day to teach you.
