Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I surfed around Europe for five weeks solidly with only two night trains and four nights at festivals in 2008. In 2011 I surfed twice in Russia. 2014 I surfed a few places in India. 2015 I surfed in Indonesia.
Interests
I’m really into films and music(ill ALWAYS have a pair of headphones on me) , I watch quite a lot of cartoons still too :).
Going out wise- I’m most happy in a new pub or somewhere slightly weirdly unique… Not usually a big fan of ‘clubbing’ partly because I don't listen to charts music… If its sunny then finding somewhere nice and green is good!
I like people; how they work and think, working with children has been an amazing experience, everyone is very different.

Music, Movies, and Books
Electro, Deep House, Lounge, Lofi, Rock, Alternative Rock, Post Rock, Jazz, Ambient, Trance, Hiphop, Triphop, 80’s synth, chillwave. (In no particular order)
I like good films- if you think it’s good, I’d like to watch it!
I’ve watched far too many series to list them all- the most recent few were: The middle, Orange is the new black, and Silicon valley.
I specifically read 60’s-70’s Sci fi, something about the space race and all that, makes these books perfect :) (I pretty much collect these books too)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've done a lot of weird or cool things travel-wise I think... From taking the trans-mongolian to walking down the side streets of New Delhi until I get thoroughly lost, it's all good.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach people to open bottles on anything?
Art & Design - understanding and practice.
Children / viewpoints and mindsets how different people see the world.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I like to share pizza because usually they're too big for me alone. I also like to share my weird sense of humor.
