// Currently living in 🇦🇺 not 🇬🇧 but can’t update it on the app //

Hiiii lovely people of the world!!!! In July 2017 I left my full time teaching job in London and I've been travelling, teaching, volunteering and working all over the world ever since. Full time global vagabond 🌍🌎🌏

Current trip: cycle tour of Australia 🇦🇺 🚲⛺️ I’m trying to travel the world as carbon neutrally as possible ♻️

Things I do and love: reading, exploring, writing, wandering around art galleries and museums, hanging out in parks and green spaces, coffee, climbing, running, cycling, swimming, yoga and dancing (badly).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently travelling solo and I find that the best way to meet like minded people and explore places from a local perspective is by making connections in the travel community. For me it’s a safe space where people understand my lifestyle and help each other out on a pay-it-forward basis and I love that life mentality.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

TOP THREE:

1) Over the Winter/Spring of 2018 I lived in the back of a car for a couple of months and drove 7000+ miles road tripping across the USA, passing through 21 states; exploring cities, canyons, deserts, lakes, forests, mountains and two oceans. An amazing experience, learning to live with less and appreciate more!

2) I walked the Camino de Santiago 👣 (Frances route = 479miles) in Winter ❄️, two months after major surgery 💉

3) Post Melbourne lockdown (2020) cycled and camped 2800km solo around the state of Victoria...including the Great Alpine Road (one of Aus’s hardest climbs) 🚲⛺️🇦🇺
