I'm an optimist, a bit of a dreamer, I love forests, I love mountains, and I love the coast. I'm a vegetarian and I love animals and I will say yes to pretty much anything if it means I get to have a good story to tell.

"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I spent 4 months 'touring' Europe in the summer, playing music and seeking inspiration. My trip was the most amazing experience because of the people I met through CS. Meeting locals took me to places I'd never have otherwise been and enabled me to meet people that have taught me so much, inspired, and humbled me.

Music, Movies, and Books

Asking me to pick a favourite genre of music is near criminal. I write indie-folky songs and I'm in love with Laura Marling, Regina Spektor, Joni Mitchell, and Janis Joplin, but I love everything from rock to musical theatre depending on my mood.

I like superheroes and I don't like horrors. Mostly I like films that make you think, but more so films that make you feel. Little Miss Sunshine and Goodwill Hunting are my favourite films ever.

I love a good story. Adventure/fantasy/just ridiculous things that stretch your imagination to places only books can take you. I like to read things that make me cry or that make me laugh so much that I look like an idiot on the train in my own little imagination land

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

But just to live would be an awfully big adventure
