About Me

I am a very talkative and outgoing person , really friendly and can strike up a conversation with anyone. I am extremely frank and honest about my feelings and love meeting new people as in interacting with others you learn more about yourself.

PHILOSOPHY

The recipe for unhappiness lies in having enough leisure time to even bother whether you're happy or not. Keep busy, and try ALL the new things.

I'm a person who loves embracing diversity, and I always try to stay out of my comfort zone. Except for when I'm tired.Then everything can fuck off.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a reminder that are kind people in the world, and help will be there if you ask for it. I simply love the serendipity of not knowing who you'll meet.
I like the idea of sharing and things /people/places that are different and diverse, what better way to keep things fresh than by meeting strangers :)

Interests

I love to spend time with friends and visit new places, and sample the local cuisine, I think I'm going to be quite a foodie! I have my quiet hobbies like reading and drawing, but also have my more upbeat ones like dancing and martial arts :)
Favorite topics of conversation? That would also depend on the person, but I like to discuss future plans, gender, rights, funny/cringy/wonderful/terrifying stories are good too.
