Hey! I’m currently traveling while working remotely, as my passion is to experience and learn about new cultures and enjoy the food, meet new people, and be open to adventure! I like to stay with hosts who agree with the '2-way' philosophy of CS; this shouldn't be just a hostel-type situation, I'd rather be able to get to know my host, share stories, and explore the area (unless of course, you have to work or have previous plans)!
Interested in Classical
Interested in Concerts
Fluent in English
Learning Portuguese
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I’m using a variety of ways to stay in cities whether I’m passing through for a few days or settling in for a longer-term stint. Couchsurfing is a great way to meet local people to get to know a country/city better, and possibly make some lasting friendships!
Music, Movies, and Books
All music, except country (for the most part). However, I do have a lot of Spanish music in my playlists... otherwise most of my favorites include: - Alternative/indie (The Shins, Jukebox the Ghost, Portugal. The Man, Glass Animals, The Decemberists, Lorde, MIKA, Grouplove...) - Disney (self-explanatory. Mainly good fodder for singing in the shower on occasion. I won't subject you to Disney unless you're keen to have a spontaneous karaoke session..) - Opera - Flamenco - anything with a good beat = good dancing
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Swimming a few feet away from the edge of world's largest waterfall (Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe) with nothing but a small green rope to grab onto if I started to float away... better than coffee to wake up in the morning!
Teach, Learn, Share
I’d be happy to do an intercambio to help someone improve their English. Or if anyone wants to talk shop about digital marketing! And of course - travel experiences are ALWAYS welcome :)
What I Can Share With Hosts
Swapping stories and sharing a bottle of wine!
