Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently using couch surfing as a way of meeting awesome local people in the places that I visit while I am travelling and getting a insider's view of towns and cities. I cant wait to return the favour when I return to my own country.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Im still pretty new to couch surfing and am just learning how it all works. Please be patient with my ignorance of the process!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite movies include Die Hard (all of them!), Back to the Future, The Shawshank Redemption, Love Actually.. many more.
I like basically all music- artists like Jackson Brown, Billy Joel, Dr Hook, The Stones and The Pixies are right up there along with The Shins, The Strokes, Mumford and Sons and La Roux and secret loves, like Michael Buble and 90's Pop, definitely deserve a mention! I dont even mind a little bit of classical every now and then.
Books on my list of faves are Briget Jones Diary, Harry Potters, Shantaram, Marching Powder, Crime and Punishment..

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled South American a few years ago and had a crazy week in Rio during Carnivale. Our night in the Samba Drome was one of the most incredible, colourful, exciting nights of my life, not to mention the party afterwards!
In Bolivia, my friends and I explored the Jungle and Pampas of the Amazon with our local friend, Nilo, and went skinny dipping in a secluded waterfall- definitely a major highlight for me.

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Belgium, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Luxembourg, Morocco, Netherlands, Norway, Paraguay, Peru, Poland, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Uruguay
