ABOUT ME
31. I'm currently based in Athens, working part time as a school teacher and doing Chinese-English translation the rest of the time. One of my favourite hobbies when I have the time is learning and practising foreign languages, eg Chinese, Spanish, French, Greek. I also like sharing stories and talking to interesting/different people, music, diving, travelling (of course, overland when possible!), improvised musical comedy, hiking, and outdoors things.

MY MOTTO: Live life without a motto.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
To connect with local people, customs etc, not just abuse the opportunity of a free room.

I've been hosted by great hosts in Taiwan and Morocco, which have definitely been the best experiences of those trips!

While I don't have the space to host in my home in Athens, when I'm free I am happy to meet up with travellers to share advice about the area I live in!
