Hey there, I’m an anthropologist working on land and ethnic conflict issues in Myanmar and have been living back and forth between Burma, Thailand and London over the past five years. I grew up between Canada and the UK but my work and interests have taken me around the world a lot and still am fascinated by all the amazing things and people in the world. I’m into all things spicy, good cooking, playing music (piano and sax and production), photography and cinema. Spend lots of time reading and writing, work in humanitarian and indigenous issues and also a part time photographer and filmmaker. Love being with people, exploring, relaxing and making music. And most importantly underanding and exploring new cultures!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

To meet new people and share experiences! I have met many interesting people travelling, and think travel is about meeting and sharing things with others, learning about local culture and simply experiencing things in a different way!
