Hi! I'm Tricia, but everyone calls me Tee. I study cognitive sciences, but I work with design in entertainment marketing / freelance. I am always either listening or looking for or talking about music, and I will and can eat anything (I haven't found anything I'm allergic to yet, but I don't really think I'd let that stop me).
I sincerely believe that life is only made significant by the people you meet. Of people's stories, of their years of rising and falling, to become the people they are now.
And I would absolutely love to meet you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm making my way through the UK and the EU for the next few months with a full backpack and a not-so-full wallet. It's my first time here, and I'm getting blown away. But when I travel, I want to just...take in the grounded, real lifestyle of that city or town – I care less about monuments and more about moments. So what better way to do that than to meet someone who lives there?

Interests

I study cognitive science, so any discussion around psychology or philosophy around the human or artificial mind is riveting. Anything music-related, of course: my top genres are tagged. I collect vinyls, too, so if you have any cool records, I would be happy to gush over them.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music – right now I'm listening to a shit ton of indie or whatever the genre is, with artists like FAVELA, Astronauts etc., Youth Lagoon, Beach Fossils...
Movie – of all time, this german film called Veronica. It was filmed in one entire masterpiece of a 2-hour take.
Book - of all time, this breathtaking novel called All The Happiness You Deserve by Michael Piafsky.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Due to circumstances, I've been supporting myself since I was 16!

Teach, Learn, Share

Only give out kindness and what is good, and what is good will come back to you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good stories, good company, and a whole load of gratitude. I'll bake you banana bread and you'll have a cool pal (that's me) if you come by California. :)
