Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love meeting new people, travelling, and learning about different countries & cultures. I've just recently joined this community after hearing about some amazing and fun experiences my friends have had through CS.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: pop, Bollywood, Hans Zimmer, k-pop, Spanish music. I absolutely LOVE Broadway shows but those are musicals. Movies: I like most genres (no horror please). Some favorite movies are: Dark Knight, Notting Hill, Knives Out, The Gentlemen, Top Gun, James Bond, About Time. I also watch Bollywood movies and Korean movies sometimes. Books: Da Vinci Code (and other Dan Brown books), Hunger Games, Harry Potter
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I’ve trekked to Everest Base Camp without a guide or porters; that was a pretty amazing experience with my friends. Disclaimer: Would not recommend doing it without a guide, 3 of them got altitude sickness and had to helicopter down.
