I'm a laid back kiwi girl who has been lucky enough to travel quite a lot since I grew up in Hong Kong. I'm open to novel experiences and love learning new things, and go on weird missions the long way round. I'm nearly a doctor and this is my last chance to travel before starting work full time so I'm going to make the most of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet like minded individuals. I'm keen to live in a world where such a thing as CS is possible, and a safe and fun way of making new friends.

Interests

-Dogs. Especially my dog Hubble. Love most animals but definitely a dog person.
-eating! I love street food and love to try new foods from all cultures. My favorite thing about traveling is the eating.
-music, dancing and staying up to meet the sun if the mood calls for it
-TV series. All of them. Film. I love going to film festivals and watching movies I can't talk to anyone about because no one has seen them. Radio. Podcasts. All the media, get in my brain.
-I love swimming. In the ocean or the river of possible. Even in winter. Maybe more so in winter and at night. I'm pretty brave.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love radiohead, the National, jungle, war on drugs, sigur ros, TV on the radio, grizzly bear, department of Eagles, the Beatles, modest mouse, caribou, fka twigs, sun kil moon, the xx. I'm going to Coachella this year and go to lots of gigs and music festivals when I can. I like happy hippy indie vibes.

Love reading. Especially sci-fi. ray bradbury. J g Ballard. I like the beats too- jack kerourac on the road, William Burroughs. Hunter s. T. Poetry like Langston Hughes and Sylvia plath.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Attended an United Nations conference on sustainable development in Rio. I'm into sustainable futures.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Pretty good at science, maths and medicine. I'll check that mole for you! (mostly joking).
I love having critical thinking, philosophical, political chats if people enjoy that but am easy friendly about it. Nothings worse than people who push their views too hard, I more like to understand what other people are about. I can share some interesting stories and I love sharing laughs and kindness. =)
