Overview
About Me
- Just graduated with a degree in Animal Behaviour, so if your pet is unruly I might have a few tricks up my sleeve.
- It's when you have to adapt to survive that you learn the most, and that life is the most thrilling!
- I'm passionate about anything I don't know, and an advocate for lifelong learning.
- Diversity is the spice of life.
- I enjoy nightlife and socialising as much as solitary moments in nature.
- Outgoing, dynamic and helpful.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
- Several friends told me great stories of the encounters they made while couchsurfing, and it seems to be a great way to meet people of different cultures and backgrounds.
- New, haven't surfed or hosted before.
