About Me

Hi!! Im a young aspiring artist who wants to make a real difference in the world (sounds so cliche, I know). I specialize in drawing and painting but I sculpt on the side as well and the easiest way to describe my style would be realism but if realism was waaaay more whimsical hahaha. I currently fundraise for a variety of ngo's (some more well known than others) and I work as an assistant curator at an art gallery. I also have a passion for animals and environmental issues (vegetarian for 3 years, aspiring vegan hahaha).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've figured out that the classic "go to university, live a normal mundane life, get a boring job" lifestyle just isn't for me. I crave adventure, seeing new things, meeting new people, having different experiences everyday and I don't mind if I have to live in some less than ideal situations to do that (it's worth it). I get bored very easily and to be frank, I think life is more than just getting a job and paying bills. That being said, I'm still a broke kid trying to find a way to explore the world without needing a crazy amount of money.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well, a big motivation for me to go to new places is so I can get new inspirations for my art. New people are usually a muse for me (especially if they have a cool story) so you can expect at least one piece of art that you can keep while I stay with you (other than that, I really have no material possessions to offer). I can also share some fun stories and some good company! I'm a great listener hahaha.
