About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To hop around the world

ABOUT ME

I'm a recently graduated classics student from Dunedin, New Zealand. I fled to Poland to teach English for awhile.

I'm fairly introverted, and live in my own little world a lot. My life often revolves around coffee dates, work and university.

I love history, politics, and philosophy and will gladly discuss or listen to any and all ideas. We might debate them a little if you don't mind. I love music,heritage, and random conversations about everything and anything. Give me an interesting topic and we can talk to your heart's content.

I am quite sarcastic but overall a nice person. If you need help or want anything just let me know and I'll do what I can.

I love walking around in the dark, particularly cemeteries and old buildings. I suppose you could call me a little macabre.

PHILOSOPHY

Left-wing, occasional bouts of socialism. I think people should take advantage of what life offers us, and help those who can't.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So far the most amazing thing I have done is left New Zealand and my comfortable university world for a country where I couldn't speak the language and knew little about. But I survived Poland and learnt a lot.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can tell you everything you want to know about New Zealand. I can also teach a little English if you want. I could teach you to make cocktails too, but I might be a little out of practice.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Bulgaria, Cambodia, Croatia, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Laos, Netherlands, Poland, Serbia, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand, Turkey, United Kingdom, Viet Nam
