CURRENT MISSION

I believe that travel is the best education...I wish to be thoroughly educated..

ABOUT ME

I am 18 and I want to experience as much of life and learn as much as I can while I am youthful and my mind is still a sponge! I LOVE travelling and learning languages at the moment I know basic hungarian. I was an exchange student to Hungary in 2005.
Daniel Try (my boyfriend) is 24 and is equally bitten by the travel bug after doing a contiki tour of Europe but felt this didn't do the beautiful continent any justice!

PHILOSOPHY

I am still too young to have a set personal philosophy... My philosophy I guess is to be kind to others and learn and listen as much as possible.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to couchsurf to meet interesting people and experience new cultures. When I return I intend to return the favours as long as those I live with agree!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We are new to the CouchSurfing Experience! I heard about this project through a friend and thought it was a fantastic idea. I have been an exchange student and hosted a student as well and think it is so important to learn about other peoples cultures and experiences.
