About Me

Hey! I am making my way through Europe by train by myself! I'm out to meet some interesting people and have some stories to tell at home!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently, I am an extrovert traveling alone. You see the supply/demand relation there.

Interests

I like to play music and sing, and what I lack in talent I make up for in enthusiasm! I love to read and listen to music and to dance, all of which can liberate a person.

  • literature
  • music
  • linguistics
  • theatre
  • english studies

Music, Movies, and Books

Authors: Doing my best to read to read work by someone who is not a straight white man.

Artists: Really too much to name, but I'm currently going strong on Supertramp, They Might Be Giants, and The Mountain Goats.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I played as a chaser in a Quidditch team for a year.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am open to share any knowledge I have, but I am only interesting on a few subjects and they are mostly linguistics-related. I also bring along a guitar, so if you're interested in singing or playing together, I'm up for teaching or playing together!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can play music, cook, do dishes, and provide insights on word origins.

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, Czech Republic, England, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Scotland, Switzerland, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In

Netherlands, United Kingdom
