About Me

Hello! My name is Noam Davies, from Vancouver, Canada, and I'm 26 years old. I've just used Couchsurfing once, and it was a wonderful experience - hoping to use it again! I unfortunately can't host in my own home right now, but I hope to be able to one day, especially if I'm living somewhere interesting. Always interested in meeting interesting, and interested, people!

I studied philosophy in university , and have played hockey, soccer (...football), and chess all my life. Crazy about books, music, movies, history, linguistics, and all manner of other things. I try to be polite, friendly, and cordial - always capable of being convivial and conversational, or just quiet and unobtrusive.

And pets... yes please!!!

Hablas español? Que no te importe demasiado mi español horrible!
