Hello! I'm from the UK but currently living and working in Porto whilst completing a Masters degree.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

To meet new people - share experiences and create new ones. To laugh together, eat together, to simply talk - we learn so much from just talking to each other.

Interessen

Enjoying live music, reading, festivals, enjoying good conversation with friends, making new friends. Dancing. Always dancing! Enjoying being outside and walking around unknown places, taking in my surroundings on my own and with others.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I like a wide range of things, but here are some favs:

Music:
Generally, anything that feels good, but here are some loves- Earth Wind and Fire, Little Dragon, Flying Lotus, Beck, Nina Simone, Robert Glasper, LCD Sound System, James Brown and Badbadnotgood, Led Zeppelin, loads more

Movies:
Anything with Bill Murray makes me smile! I love Park Chan-Wook, Steve McQueen, films from the 80s, and sci-fi fantasy too....

Books: We Need to Talk About Kevin, Chavs: the Demonization of the Working Class, The Bluest Eye, Black Skin, White Masks, In Search of our Mothers Garden and on and on...!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I love cooking so I'm always happy to share dishes, particularly from my Caribbean roots, although I tend to improvise a lot, so get ready..it gets strange! I also have an intense (read strange) love and knowledge for 70s funk music so I'm always sharing what I know. The rest, well I guess we'll just share what we know when we meet and go from there! :)

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

A mattress and/or sofa (depending on how many) along with a friendly/welcoming atmosphere. I love cooking, so always happy to share a meal, or show people around.
