About Me

Life mission: To learn about the world and myself and to love it. Live in the moment. Be wild and free.

I am a friendly and open person who loves meeting new people (and animals), having interesting conversations, playing music and having adventures!

Have been living in Spain and going to the Balkans to busk and travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy travelling and meeting new people and I think couch surfing is an excellent way of doing both. Let's make the world a more open place.

Interests

I love learning music and improvising on the violin. Happy to play most types of music. The environment, politics and the world around us is something that both inspires me and makes me want to develop a better future. I enjoy food and cooking, particularly vegan and vegetarian food. reading, walking/cycling- I like to be out in nature. I also enjoy writing, especially poetry. socialising, circus skills, drama, activism, philosphy and religion, Telling and hearing stories from different cultures as well as hearing people's own stories. I love learning new languages and practicing/ developing the ones I already know some of.
