CURRENT MISSION

Carpe diem :)

ABOUT ME

I'm a 21 year-old jet setter who loves to travel and meet new people :) I study English Literature, I like to draw and sketch portraits, hit a city's nightlife and glowstick dance for hours, and just hang out with my mates, a pizza, and a good film.

PHILOSOPHY

"Talk the talk, but DANCE the walk..." -- Anonymous

Basically, as cliche as it sounds, I just try and live life to the fullest...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I really want to meet the locals of the places I visit, and what better way to do it than to crash on their couch?? I participate by traveling and couch surfing, and hopefully one day when I own a home of my own I can return the favor to others!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had a fantastic time couchsurfing all throughout Europe during Christmas! I met new friends that I'm still in touch with and got to experience Amsterdam, Belgium, Paris, and Budapest like a local! I would definitely recommend couchsurfing to everyone :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydived! I almost died too when I forgot to kick my legs back properly whilst jumping out of the plane and ended up plummeting down in freefall *upside down* (so that I could see the bottom of the plane as opposed to the earth below)...but got righted in the end and obviously survived ^.^

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you the basics of glowstick/glowstring dancing! It's a very interesting artform similar to poi but you use glowsticks to weave light color patterns in the air. I can also practice a bit of light conversational Spanish or Italian (or English) with you, teach you about Jewish culture, or have long lengthy discussions about literature!
