Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I had my first couchsurfing experience in Bangkok, and led me to someone I would now consider a very close friend. Meeting people from so far away and exchanging views of culture and life is such an amazing experience.
Interests
I adore films (feel free to shut me up if I start going on about them) and literature - however I don't read half as much as I should. I currently write poetry and short stories and dream of a life I one day wish to live in art.

Music, Movies, and Books
This is a pretty dangerous section for me as it is pretty much my life;
I love anything innovative, anything with a new twist on it, which at the same time is pretty much the classics too.
Movies; Breakfast Club, Star Wars (4-6), Dark Knight Trilogy, I, Robot, 500 Days of Summer, Tokyo Gore Police.
Music; P.O.S, Doomtree, Jimi Hendrix, Kendrick Lamar, Frank Ocean, Ben Howard, Ray Charles
Books; The Book Thief (if you haven't read it, READ IT), On the Road, A Song of Ice and Fire series, The Great Gatsby, Grapes of Wrath, I also read a lot of Graphic Novels.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Seeing a total eclipse in Zimbabwe
Walking down any street in Bangkok is truly mindblowing.
Sitting on top of the Bayon temple at 6am is something that will never be matched for me - probably one of the only points in my life I've ever truly felt something divine.
