Hey I'm Shaiden, I like to make friends from every part of the world. My philosophy pretty much consists of the idea that there is happiness to be found in everything, yet it all seems meaningless unless shared with others. I believe in the importance of simplicity in all things and am pretty open minded to anything so if you're a genuine person we'll get along great!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to meet people who share the same mindset as me. While I'm travelling I always seem to instantly click with the people I meet because we are all the same in that we don't fit in back home. The friends I've made on the road will last me a lifetime and I can only hope that you'll be one of them in the future, wether I have the pleasure of showing you around my home town or vice versa! I love seeing the entire world and experiencing all of the unique things that aren't possible at home.
