Overview
About Me
I'm a free spirited bohemian lady who likes hugging trees, sciencing, writing reading and crying about (almost) everything. Big on gender equality and a (bit) snobby about my music! I also think I can change the world, but there’s not enough data to back that hypothesis (yet).
I'm working in Bangladesh in the development sector, and as I clock out of work I (try to) work on being a writer.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I once saw a ted video where the speaker said "Don't ask a person where they're from. Ask them where they're local."
I agree to this because I think people aren't really from somewhere, they're local in different places at different phases of their lives. I'd like to meet different people who are local wherever I go.
I'm excited about meeting new people and travelling to different places, and learning about their experiences and creating mine on the way!
