I'm outgoing and shy and a bit awkward and working on all of these things at once! I love brownies and snow, books and people, and I kind of get bored with fireworks after a while.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love traveling and I like people :)

Interests

Video editing, languages, reading and walking, riding on a bicycle and singing really loudly, by myself.

I'm also working on a semi-silly web serie with a friend: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH2fe4STMKhwntD841CZbHg

Music, Movies, and Books

I always feel a little naked if I don't have a book on hand, whatever it is.

Music wise... I work with teenagers. I know a lot about One Direction. But I'm owning it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A stranger helping a random tourist throwing up her meal in a train restroom.... (I was not the stranger... I was the tourist. New food and all.)
And then a stranger once again helping a random tourist when said random tourist lost her wallet and train ticket. Different country. Different stranger. Same tourist. Heh.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been learning about bees in an apiary in Morioka and they are FASCINATING. I can bake a good pie, make Italian sweets, and share my very basic knowledge of the ukulele. <3
