About Me

Personality wise I'd say I'm quirky, can be cheeky and love a good laugh. I don't take things too seriously and I'm very optimistic; a glass half full type of person (#confession possibly the goofy type ... just a tiny bit).

I'm all up for trying new things and am a bit of an adrenaline junky.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is long enough it's just what you make of it.

Don't wait 4 the perfect moment, take the moment & make it perfect

If you are not seating on the edge then you are pretty much taking up too much space.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet new people, see most of the world whilst experiencing the local culture.

The people I've so far met through this community are some of the most awesome, open minded people I know.

I'm all for :
Travelling,
Film,
Photography,
Linguistics,
Playing my keyboard,
Running,
and anything that sets my adrenaline to new heights.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
Bit of a tricky one as I'm an all rounder. I will listen to anything that sounds pleasant to my ears, and depending on what mood I'm in at the time.
Classical, Dance and some club classics with a mixture of upbeat pop, Jazz & the Blues, 80’s (Big fan). I'm a sucker for boy bands too lol.

Not so keen on heavy metal, some types of hip-hop and certain types of reggae.

Movies:
I'm an action chick at heart. I'm up for anything with Liam Neeson and anything by Quentin Tarantino. I also like psychological mystery films that make you think, surprise you in the end or leave you completely bewildered like the Sixth Sense, Inception or Shutter Island. Some good comedy will do, but nothing cheesy. I guess that generally as a film profession, I will watch any genre without any difficulties.

Books: Birdsong, Cold Mountain, Holes and generally like reading romance novels and photography magazines.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one?

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach English and do help out some of my friends around the globe who are not quite fluent.

Would love to become fluent in Spanish by end of this year.

Sharing travelling experiences.
