Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always wanted to Couchsurf but so far haven't built up the courage. Recently I've discovered how awesome it is to travel alone and meet new people – so I'd love to take that a step further and get to know people through Couchsurfing!

Interests

Exploring the world, trying to take pictures (I'm more Instagramer than photographer), trying/failing to learn Chinese. And eating/trying anything (there's not many things I wouldn't try!)

• culture
• documentaries
• traveling
• hiking

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a complete bookworm and would happily wax lyrical about my favourite books. I love anything by Marquez and I have a real love for Arabic literature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Either a) a three say hike through the southern Himalayas in Nepal with a stunning sunrise over the Annapurna region or b) a four day motorcycle adventure through Ha Giang province in northern Vietnam. The best things come in threes!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can sometimes say funny things. I like to talk about documentaries I've watched. Recently I watched one about Panda's. It was excellent.
