Adventurous travel geek, constantly looking out for my next destination and cultural fix.

I'm traveling for two reasons mainly:

1: Culture Culture Culture. Art. Music. Theatre. I will travel to the other side of the world for a musical or theatrical event, but my main stomping ground is colourful Europe.

2: Adventure. Traveling to new exciting destinations and learning from other cultures than my own

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Meeting people of all colours and shapes are one of the main reasons why I travel. Couchsurfing is the BEST way to meet new people when you aren't a party animal

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I'm a music geek and know most of what is going on in the music scene, whether its modern/contemporary or classical. I have an enthusiasm for creative outlets and love to get excited with other cultural souls. Inspiration is key.

I'm friendly and respectful. I love sharing my experiences. I don't have a travel checklist, but I love exchanging travel/life stories with other travelers
