I want to learn as I can (while I'm still able to). Made friends from all over the world through travelling and au pair experiences, still making more.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Everyone loves to travel right? But sometimes it's great to explore a new place with locals. At some point I just get tired of the touristy stuff- I usually travel alone so what's a better way to make friends? When I travel to another city by myself or with another person who knows nothing about the place, this is how we make friends.unfortunately at this point in my life I am not able to be a host because I live with my host family (from aupair) but hosting another surfer is definitely something I want to do.
Music, Movies, and Books
I listen to almost every genre(except metal rock, haven't tried yet). I like comedies, action and horror movies. I like mystery novels, sci-fi and history books
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Wouldn't say amazing but I've been bungee jumping, next on the list is cliff diving
What I Can Share With Hosts
I like to teach people about where I'm from, and the clicking language that people find interesting!! There is so much I want to learn I wouldn't know where to start, languages are the first thing.
My Interests
Music, art, theater shows, dance, travelling, rugby, music festivals, food,
