About Me

18 as of the 30th of July 2015, I'm travelling through Europe, just come from full time work as 3IC at 'The Reject Shop' and before that I was a highschool student.

I'm incredibly spontaneous, don't plan anything, love humans (does sound a bit broad, but people are generally pretty cool), love chatting, good at cleaning (cooking could use some work, but I can Google so I'm set), come from German-Japanese and Australian heritage so I'm efficient and polite but still like lazing about and enjoying the simpler things in life. At very least you won't know I've nicked anything till I'm out of the country and under a different name.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Honestly? Cuz accommodation in England is absolutely ridiculous and I haven't made quite enough friends here yet to rely on their couches.

Also so I can meet more of the wondrous people that inhabit this earth, spread love and peace (but not in a hippy-bullshit sorta way). But mainly cuz of the cost, let's be real.

Interests

Refer to above and below.

  • dining
  • cooking
  • shopping

Music, Movies, and Books

Big Trouble in Little China, Run Lola Run, Shaun of the Dead, cheesy 80s action flicks - heck anything with Arnold Schwarzenegger or zombies (but the combination of the two is appalling).

Wild Beasts, reggae, Goa, 80s (something about the urgency and epicness behind it all), Seeed, dream pop, Pink Floyd, The Specials, Radiohead . . . anything that sounds good.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I came second in laser force one day. That was pretty cool.

Teach, Learn, Share

Sure.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've just come from six months of essentially managing a store, gov, I CAN clean. I also get on tremendously with kids and ESPECIALLY babies, and if you're shifty enough to enlist some random bloke on the couch to babysit - I'll do a smashing job!

Whatever perishable items I have on me (food/etc) are yours as they are mine. 'A man who shares his daily meal seldom feels the wrath of hunger,' some wise Hindu dude said that and I live by it whenever possible.

But let's screw the pretense here, I've made so many amazing friends recently with the opening line 'wollen sie mit mir rauchen?' which is Deutsch for 'do you want to smoke with me?'

If you don't partake, I respect that fully, and am not going to bring that kind of stuff into your household. However, if you're one of the s mine is yours Ace.
