ABOUT ME

fun loving, pretty independent, have lived life how I wanted to rather than what is expected. open minded, egalitarian, enjoy meeting new people from all over the world and finding out about different countries and cultures. I enjoy time on my own too.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live and do no harm.

"People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost." ~ Dalai Lama

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was in couchsurfing about 5/6 years ago when I lived in Vienna, Austria and also during my time in China where I participated in meetups and whatnot. In Vienna I hosted a couchsurfer once at my place and met up with people for coffee.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I really enjoyed meeting people at meetups in China for anything from karaoke to Bollywood dance nights and large Chinese dinners. I recently re-joined CS and had some fun times in Vancouver with nice people there too.
