About Me
ABOUT ME
I was born and raised in the U.K where I lived most of my life until the travel-bug kicked in. Traveling was always my number one priority and I don't see myself stopping any time soon... I was lucky enough to live and study in Chile for my degree. Anyway, I now find myself living and figuring out life in Montreal, Canada - a temporary home for the moment anyway!
I'm definitely a people person and am extremely easy to get on with. I'm inquisitive and always open to meeting new people and discovering new ways of life in unfamiliar places. Easy-going, open-minded and honest are three qualities I like to think I bring to the table.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I guess I'm couchsurfing to connect and explore places, in addition to living new experiences.
I like to think that everyone is LGBTQ friendly, but there are still some narrow-minded thinkers out there... let's change that!
Interests
Aside from traveling, I'm interested in cooking and food in general - there's nothing as satisfying as spending the afternoon cooking or baking something new and exciting with a friend or two!
Judaism is a big part of my life and there's always something new to learn, or be taught...
- cooking
- traveling
- languages
- eating
- cinema
- judaism
- world cinema
- israel
Music, Movies, and Books
Quite an eclectic range I'd say... ranging from Mercedes Sosa, The Idan Raichel Project, to Katie Melua (to name but a few).
I love independent Latin American cinema, and anything with Norma Aleandro or Ricardo Darin!
But my favourite films from childhood have to be Matilda and Babe (random, I know)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Volunteered on a Kibbutz!
Teach, Learn, Share
Would love to learn more about the struggles and reality of LGBTQ life in certain places....
Politics is always an interesting one!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'll share a great meal with you, and hopefully some meaningful conversation.
More than happy to discuss controversial topics - they are the most interesting after all!
