Entering my third year of university, I decided to take some time off to get back to basics! The happiest I've ever been was when I did a solo year abroad, mostly through Europe and Australia, when I was 22.

Fairly high energy, I'm definitely on the more extroverted end of the spectrum. While I love to take time to myself to read and write in my journal, I'm at my happiest when meeting people, eating and laughing with new friends.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Planning a trip to Japan from January 10th to February 15th. Only 100% solid is my Tokyo portion, which will be for Feb 1st to 15th. Before that I will be snowboarding in Hakuba and Hokkaido, and after that shooting around the country with my Japanese rail pass. Travelling with a friend up until the 22nd of Jan, with arrangements taken care of till then. Really just looking for some pointers, and maybe some friends to meet on the road. If I can find a place to stay for even part of the time, that's just gravy on top!

Looking forward to observing traditional practices, learning the language as best I can and gaining perspective in where I am sure is going to be the most "different" place I can possibly imagine right now.

音乐、电影和书籍

Musically I range with anything between melodic black metal to modern hip-hop.
Pinback, The National, Pink Floyd, System of a Down, Radiohead, Tribe Called Quest, being some of my top artists.

Brave New World, 1984, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
Essentially, if its a grim picture of the future - I'll read it!
