Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Gotta meet locals on my adventures and gotta keep those accommodation costs down because I'm actually quite poor. Please help me. PLEASE. I BEG YOU.
Music, Movies, and Books
Cormac McCarthey novels. Bad, low budget horror movies on Netflix. Rick & Morty. Punk music and Alternative. Am willing to fight about 'It Follows' and why it's the best horror movie of the last ten years. House Bolton.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Witnessed the biggest soccer match in US history at the time, and spilled mustard all over the man sitting in front of me.
Teach, Learn, Share
Pack light. Alcohol is not a substitute for water. Bring earplugs because people in hostels snore and have sex with each other. WHY DO THESE SHORTS NOT HAVE POCKETS OH GOD.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Dry, sarcastic humour. Regular cups of tea and coffee. Fashion advice.
My Interests
Seem to have become more politically active than usual recently. Slowly becoming a fitness freak, and trained in herbal medicine. My time is mostly filled with drinking overpriced coffee because I'm a millennial, and getting stressed out by cars when I'm cycling. Addicted to travelling, riding the bike, and generally being a loser.
