About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Estudiaaaaa antropología en Bogotá

ABOUT ME

I like to be jolly (listening to celtic music hepls this), to have fun, to meet new and diverse people, to explore, to share language, music and art, to exchange cultures and understandings. I love to learn new things about different people and their cultures...especially about cooking and music... I don't mind making a fool of myself, usually quite enjoy doing so..especially when learning another language :P

PHILOSOPHY

Never lose touch with the small things in life, however small and sometimes silly they may seem: tea, little insects, sunshine and rain....and of course caring for the environment, for your environment, the people around you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I think couchsurfing is brilliant!! It puts the adventure back in modern travelling (where one can plan their entire trip from the safety of their living-room) I have met so many wonderful people!! And seen lots of places off the beaten track. I have hosted too and have been happy to meet up with traveller folk in and around Melbourne.

Teach, Learn, Share

The more I live the more ignorant I feel.There is always something one can learn from someone-I love learning and exchanging and growing.
But...I could give you some tips about fiddle playing/viola. I love foood, so maybe an exchange in the kitchen-I've been collecting ideas along the road : )
