CURRENT MISSION

A little bit of everything. If it sounds interesting, I'm down!

ABOUT ME

Like most others on CS, I think I'm pretty laid back. On a mission to travel and meet new and interesting people. The less mundane the experience, the more I'm down. Especially interested in sampling foods from around the world, textiles and metal works.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live. Don't get riled up over the small stuff, channel that energy into great new experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Met some cool people through couchsurf as well as some places to stay.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed on some couches while backpacking in Europe, went to a CS meet up.

Interests

I adore visually stunning and stylized films and good movie scores. Beautiful art is a hobby, especially impressionism (I can oil paint but the process is frustrating). Binge watching TV is a passion. Eating great food with friends is a life goal. Meeting new people and learning their stories is a favoured pass time. Environmental, sustainability and aboriginal rights activism is of keen interest.

Music, Movies, and Books

My interests span just about every genre. I'll watch anything with a good plot line. Horror, I can live without. Music is complicated but my top loves are probably jazz, swing, gospel (it sounds pretty, the religious content doesn't interest me), indie, folk, bluegrass, classical, trance and electro swing. I've been particularly fancying Neil Gaiman of late.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Scuba diving in the coral reefs in southern coast of Taiwan. Walking into a castle/church in Europe for the first time (Prague Castle) and seeing all my textbooks coming to life was breathtaking. Getting lost in beautiful cities and having the kindest strangers coming to your aid.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some Mandarin or English and I'm a great cook as well!
