I'm a traveller by blood, I grew up travelling and now I can't get enough! I've always thought the best way to get to know a place is through meeting the locals, which is why I like the couchsurfing philosophy so much. My interests include nature, food, reading, chatting, music, and writing.
Interested in Animals
Interested in Foodie

Fluent in English
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I love the couchsurfing philosophy of experiencing a new place through the locals that live there. The locals can show you the real side, the hidden gems, the things that a traveler would never find.
Music, Movies, and Books
I like pretty much all music. My favourites are hip hop, reggae, jazz, soul, and psychedelia. I love reading, there's too many books to list here - stories, travels, classics, biographies, memoirs, adventures, that kind of thing
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Spending 3 months living on a small homestead in the remote mountains of northern Thailand, learning how to live well from a man who was a monk for 16 years, then a musician for 5, then a chef for 3, then a dancer and teacher of Chinese martial arts for 3, and who has now returned to the traditional life in his home village to live in harmony with nature.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm an English teacher at home, so I can always help you improve your English if you want! I love sharing and learning about nature, plants, animals, ecosystems. I also like hearing and sharing thoughts about the world, personal philosophies, random thoughts, that kind of thing. I try to stay curious about everything.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Stories, experiences, ideas, good times. I try to stay kind and modest in every situation, and help out whenever I can.
My Interests
Nature, ecology, sustainability Travelling, cultural similarities and differences, FOOD Music, language, life philosophy
