Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfed in my recent trip to the west coast of America and had some really amazing experiences because of it. Definately wanna give back to the community!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

95% of my couch surfing experiences have been awesome :) have met some lovely people.

Interests

i'm super passionate about getting women and girls out of any trapped situation they're in, anywhere they can't be free and have all their rights. i've always been passionate about this but what really surfaced it was ayaan hirsi ali's 'infidel'. her life story is just incredible, such an incredible woman.

Music, Movies, and Books

My two favourite films have to be Scent of a Woman and Dr Zhivago. Both films are visually stunning plus containing some of the best actors and acting of all time and some mean plot lines.
Favourite book would have to be Wild Swans by Jung Chang, it's an amazing passage through 20th century china.
Music ahh what a difficult question. At the moment my favourite songs are taro by alt-j and my number and inhaler by foals. I continue to love Norah jones, she brings me much peace.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jet skiing around the San Francisco Bay was amazing. Also seeing the sunrise over the Grand Canyon was pretty spectacular.

Teach, Learn, Share

I play piano so would be more than willing to teach you a few tunes, or a song on the guitar, or the English language for that matter! I would love to learn about all cultures people's individual amazing lives and maybe to cook as well.

Countries I’ve Visited
