About Me

Open minded, fun to hang out with(or so I've been told), adventurous, spontaneous, meticulous, self-balanced, kind, positive, and a good sense of humor. I love meeting new people and learning new Cultures.

And most importantly:
Comfort zone? I don't do that!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel while I'm still young. Unfortunately or fortunately, that means travelling on a budget. So here I am. I figured I'm not the only one in this position so why not help each other out while we're in each others' cities or towns?
Plus you get to make new friends while at it!

Interests

Reading!!! Travelling :) , psychology, nature, music, dancing, having fun, World history, politics, religion etc.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am HUGE on music! All day, everyday! African music especially gets me happy! and movies too. Books? I can read anything. As long as it makes sense that is. And as long as it isn't too long. But I prefer fiction with a dash of History or History told as a story. And oh... I am a big fan of TV shows. Very big fan!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'll update you on this one once I feel I've done something so crazy, even I don't believe it! But for now, what tops my list is hmmm... randomly waking up, taking my bag, packing a few clothes and going backpacking in North Cyprus :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I really don't know what this is for :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

A lot of information. Both useful and meaningless! For example, you remember how Jon Snow was stabbed in GoT season 5? That's exactly how Julius Caesar was killed. Down to the part where the boy he considered his son killed him. Meaningless? maybe:)

Kenyan culture, stories of my travels as well. And a fresh perspective through my eyes. Also, I make mean Kenyan dishes!(If you're interested)

Countries I’ve Visited

Cyprus, Egypt, Tanzania, Turkey, Uganda, United Arab Emirates

Countries I’ve Lived In

Cyprus, Kenya
