Über mich

Sadly gotta start by assuring you that hangouts are not dates. I don't want to date or hook up with anyone tbh. Please do not attempt to woo me or you're gonna catch some sass.

Okay, so I've decided to quit desk jobs in favour of sanity, free time, and a general sense of well-being. Right now it's part-time childcare and a ton of odd jobs. I'll eventually study to be a school teacher.

I'm super considerate and I seldom drink, but fret not, I get pretty silly and can do the pub thing with you. Also a devout vegetable-eater and queer in every sense of the word.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

It just seems like the best way to travel. Accommodation, friend, and tour-guide all at the same time. The efficiency. ^_^

I'm in no position to host, but I occasionally have time to meet up (especially if you're into underground music). If you want advice on travelling South Africa, I'd be happy to help (best before you book your tickets, if you're not limited to certain dates). Most folks just go to Cape Town or Johannesburg, and try catch a safari, but I'd do it very differently. I can also make live music itineraries for Durban, Cape Town, or Johannesburg, if you want.

I'd really like to meet up with Brazilians when possible to practice my Portuguese. I started learning for a trip there, and I really want to get better.

Interessen

Much interest in human rights, animals, the planet and all that stuff. I really like making things. So far I've done: jewellery, ugly toys, bad short films, costumes, vegan skincare things, make-up, baked goods, baked bads, cardboard cat palaces, blanket human forts, and I don't know what else. Super into ridiculous dress-up. I slightly do the nightlife thing, but usually just for gigs or something really special. I LOVE tabletop gaming. I'm also always pretty keen to do anything that sounds kinda silly.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Learnt a passable amount of Portuguese and ate nothing but oatmeal and oranges for a couple months so that I could go see Animal Collective play Sung Tongs in Brazil. I really love them. Big lots.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can teach you to make jewellery, skincare products, and bad stuffed toys. I want to learn to play various instruments and produce music; teach me your ways? I sing slightly. I'm good at colouring hair and maintaining cuts, if you're in need. Great at massage, but let's not make things weird unless you're properly injured. :P

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Quips; sass; music; top notch hair care and colour; cooking; also pretty boss at painting nails (even the little 'uns at the end).

Länder, die ich besucht habe

Brazil, France, Ireland, Swaziland, United Kingdom

Länder, in denen ich gelebt habe

Canada, South Africa
