CURRENT MISSION

Staying alive

ABOUT ME

I'm Emily. I come from London, then I lived in Leeds for a few years. Leeds didn't want me any more so after a bit of drifting around I've ended up in Berlin.
Currently severely underpaid but enjoying my life.
I'm a quiet, laid-back kind of person but I enjoy company and good conversation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to meet new people. When I visit places I love to get a sense of how people really live there.
I use Couchsurfing a lot to find out about new places. The forums are an amazing resource. I've also met some great people here :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While in Leeds I hosted Jasin from the Netherlands and Violeta, a Bulgarian-Italian. Both great people and I couldn't have asked for nicer guests!
I'm hoping to do some couchsurfing myself in the near future.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Gone with the Wind, Harry Potter, The Colour Purple, To kill a Mockingbird, Pride and Prejudice
Music: I like rockier things, some really cheesy old stuff; I've recently started to appreciate electro music more - I think it comes with being in Berlin
Films: no particular genre but I like to see international films - I've seen a lot of German films
