I am a seeker.
I am a lover.
I am a pacifist.
I am the tempestuous wind.
I am the storm in a teacup.
I am Me.
A pleasure to be with You.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Seek like-minded travellers who are on their journey in discovering places and self-discovery. Our souls are wondrous places.

Interests

Organic farming, culture, world politics, fashion and design, philosophy and economics. Basically, just doing what a good person would do too, like you!

I am also into photography. My current love is vintage and black & white photography. I own a Fujifilm X100 - quite a nifty little thing for my travels.

Music, Movies, and Books

Straddles any genre from EDM to grunge to mellow pop ballads.

Has a penchant for art-house movies; for sobs e.g. 500 Days of Summer, La La Land; something deep or anything dystopian.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quite a bit, but to be able to serve in various civil society organisations in my country and overseas have taught me that empathy and mindfulness are two of the most beautiful & crucial qualities an individual can/should possess.

Am trying.

An honour and blessing to have worked on the ground aiding the displaced migrants in Turkey, and to witness the innocence and generosity of those who have nothing left to call theirs; losing all attachment to this world, yet so giving. To be able to understand that we are all humans with the same worries and the same needs.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am passionate about learning, and it can be about sharing anything. Really happy to learn and share with anyone.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Hugs, and perhaps some chips :)
