I have a well-developed sense of the ridiculous and an mild thirst for some crazy adventure. I can be a little introverted although in smaller groups of people I would love to talk and have meaningful conversations. I have 2 dogs at home and taking care of them can drive me pretty crazy sometimes. I'm generally considerate and respectful (it's a culture thing) and would love to get to know you better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to explore the world, and one way is to know the locals and forge meaningful friendships as I go along. Couchsurfing also helps to push me out of my social comfort zone. This is my first time couchsurfing, hope it'll be well..

Interests

I enjoy reading good books although they are regrettably few and far between nowadays. I'm trying to write more as I may want to be a novelist as side occupation in the future. I like casual conversations and learning about the lives of other people, thereby exploring new ways of life. After writing this I'll probably take my dogs down for a walk.
