CURRENT MISSION

To keep on visiting new places and meet new people!

ABOUT ME

I am 30 years old. I am an international soul. I grew up in Singapore and England. I have 3 and a half years living and working in New Zealand. I now live in Manchester, UK. I am known to be friendly and easy to get to know.

PHILOSOPHY

Never say never. Try new things. Don't sacrifice your values in favour of experience. Travel lots but know where home is. Don't forget family.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

While travelling my travel plans are typically unplanned so as to maximize the opportunities that present themselves. I like to take a chance and see what happens.
I want to stay with someone that won't mind if I run off on an adventure, but would welcome me to chill out with them also.
When I return home I'd like to offer my flat to those also seeking that experience.

At the moment my current living arrangements don't lend itself well to hosting, but I'm hopeful it will soon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed in Chile with my girlfriend, it was awesome! I have hosted several although my flatmate was the one that advertised and unfortunately I didn't have the account activated while they were staying.
I had a great time meeting up with fellow CS travellers in New York, Sao Paulo, Rio and Wellington and I look forward to meeting people in Manchester. The best CS experience I've had was when I met up with a group for a movie in the park, NY pizza and even ended up at a dance studio learning a flash mob dance for social media day. There were helicopter filming hundreds of us.

Interests

I am sporty, love the theatre and good food. I enjoy a pint down the pub as well as quiet night in and when I travel I'm keen to get stuck into the local specialities and traditions.
Movies, music and tv feature fairly high on my forms of relaxation and entertainment, however as an ex-games developer I still love my computer games!
I play football and Ultimate Frisbee regularly.
