ABOUT ME

I don't have an open mind and I hate travelling. I spit at hitchhikers. I introduce puppies and kittens to class A drugs. I sometimes read books by Ayn Rand. I don't buy fair trade panda furs. But deep down inside I got a big heart of gold??

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted and been hosted many times on the whim. CS is a slightly more organised way to do so, I guess?

I like climbing things like rocks and trees
I like drinking tea and coffee
I like science, pragmatism, humanism
I like trying to speak a language but ending up just flailing my arms wildly and hoping that I get the message across
I like spicy foods
