Hi! I'm Alanna, I'm 27 and - obviously - I love to travel. I'm not sure how best to sum myself up - I'm 5'2", left-handed and have a very very British accent!

I'm always up for new adventures, but I love my home and my friends and family. I love dancing, scuba diving, reading and trying exotic foods :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of the best things about travelling is the people you meet, and the best way to have local experiences is to meet local people! I want to meet new people, make new friends, learn new things and see new places :)
