ABOUT ME

I'm up for anything at anytime, especially good friends, good laughs and a good party. I'm also quite inquisitive, secretly shy, sincere and a good listener. I smile, a lot, and like to find the positives in any situation but I'm also not easily taken advantage of.

Anything more you'd have to find out yourself when you meet me. I still learn everyday about myself from the people around me.

PHILOSOPHY

"You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And you are the one who'll decide where to go..."€
Dr. Seuss

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

While I have an abode, I host whoever strays my way, help them explore the city, hand out whatever advice I can and provide rides on the back of my Chinese bike. One day I hope someone else may do the same for me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It keeps coming up in my life by chance, coincidence and occasionally on purpose. The people I meet though are always incredible.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm all over the place on this front!
Music can vary from indie to dance(preferably house) to rock with a little drum+bass for good measure. In terms of movies, my favorite directors are Tarantino, Guy Ritchie and Alejandro González Iñárritu but there are also so many great ones out there. I also love doccies for some reason. I tend to lean towards travel and biographical books but any well written, humourous novel will also do.
