ABOUT ME

I have just recently quite my job, in which I worked for a combined arts (theatre, dance, cinema, t.v., visual art) centre in Hammersmith, London. This is because I am going back to university to do a Masters. This I am very excited about, I am looking forward to being a student again!

This account might look slight strange, this is because my friend Tamara and I, originally set it up as a shared account when we went travelling on the Trans-siberian Railway and through China. But for now it is just me using it.

I am relaxed, easy going, spontaneous, low maintenance. Interested in becoming fully immersed in other cultures and listening to other peoples views, and always up for a laugh.

PHILOSOPHY

'If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door'

Life is like a cobweb, not an organisation chart.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Back in 2010 I originally joined couchsurfing with my friend Tamara, and we shared this account until she said I could use it as a solo traveller when I go travelling this year.

兴趣
