Overview
About Me
I’m a postgrad in English culture and lit and also working as a tour guide for Czech schools in the UK on the side. I enjoy reading, the arts, wandering in nature, listening to podcasts or swimming, playing tennis and badminton. I am vegan, interested in sustainable living and currently starting to prepare for my first camino de Santiago.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet new people who I may have a laugh with and a deep talk doesn't hurt either :)
Music, Movies, and Books
music-wise, depends on the mood but I love White Lies, The National, or Milky Chance, Ludovico Einaudi, Hans Zimmer, Ramin Djawadi or The Antlers
I’ve been a tv show fanatic more in the past than now but from recent months/years I can recommend: Ted Lasso, Narcos, Our Flag Means Death, TLOU, When They See Us. Currently I’m watching Yellowjackets :)
currently most anticipated movie — Strange Way of Life by Pedro Almodovar <3
books, too many, I’ve been reading mostly for my research so nonfiction but apart from that I loved: Hunger by Roxane Gay, Finding Me by Viola Davis, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou, The Millennium Trilogy by Stieg Larsson, The Color Purple by Alice Walker, Jack Maggs by Peter Carey, Tracks by Louise Erdrich
