I'm a 24 year old recent graduate, with a passion for traveling. I'm very laid back and independent, but I am also chatty and outgoing.

I'm originally from London but have been living in Amsterdam for the past five years. My Mum is Brazilian, so I also speak Portuguese (and Spanish) and have a love for Latin American culture.

I worked as a tour guide in Amsterdam alongside my studies, which has made me passionate about learning the history of new places I visit. I now work within the field of international political advocacy, in particular for youth empowerment and sexual and reproductive health and rights. I love discussing political issues and hearing different perspectives, but I understand this is not everyone's thing, and can judge when it's best to avoid political discussion.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch surfing to be able to visit a city with the insight of locals and the ability to meet new people who are similarly passionate about traveling and cultural exchanges.

Interests

I love exploring sites of natural beauty and finding scenic wild swimming spots. I also love city breaks, where I can learn about culture and explore the nightlife. I am also a passionate movie lover and stay very up to date on the latest releases. I am very extroverted and love meeting and chatting with new people, especially from diverse backgrounds.
