I've loved traveling ever since I can remember. It's gotten to a point where I have a hard time answering the question, "So... where are you from?" I like to think that home is wherever you want to be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and discovering new places. I think one of the best things in life is the moment when the stranger you meet over a pint turns from stranger to someone you feel like you've always known.

Interests

My musical tastes vary widely, but I'm experimenting and adventuring through the vasts depths of metal and hardcore at the moment.

I tend to spend a lot of time either poring over scholarly articles and medical journals, watching videos about how to be a better human, or getting lost in make-up or hair dressing tutorials.

Art is a relatively big part of my life, with drawing portraits probably being the most common endeavor of creativity that I undertake. Beyond that, I enjoy crafts and projects of all kinds-- jewellery making, knitting and crochet, sewing, sculpture, DIY, etc.
