CURRENT MISSION

cut my toenails...

ABOUT ME

What would people say about me??? Well they'd say a whole lot of things i hope, but i mostly hope that they'd say that i am a good friend! I guess i should ask them about that one day!
But here is what i'd say about myself, so of course this will be highly biased!
I smile and laugh a lot, i like to eat and i also like to cook for others, to talk to people from different cultures, listen to stories...
i pride myself on never having had a french boyfriend because i find that getting to know people that come from a different background than mine much more exciting!

PHILOSOPHY

I try to be a kind and open minded person and to create opportunities for change and exciting things to happen.
When that fails there is always ice cream.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well i'm pretty new to this but i'll always be here to help and offer a friendly face, hopefully make you laugh but it depends on how silly/awesome your sense of humor really is!

Interests

In my spare time i like to draw and paint, read, cook, travel....and put on weird accents ( I'm an english teacher)... like the australian accent for example!
I try to be active but i could definitely do better, but i'm working on that!
also i love live music but i'm too musically challenged to have learnt how to play an instrument yet!
I also love going to concerts,to the museum, and hiking and poetry.
