About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To have fun, meet new people and learn new things.

ABOUT ME

Hmmmm....I think I am easy going (most of the time) and like to have fun. Sometimes people say I can be a bit strange, but who wants to be normal I guess...
I am from Devon and love going back there, but at the moment I am happy travelling around working as a teacher. I've lived in Spain and Korea and currently travelling around South America after doing a teaching diploma in Buenos Aires -who knows where the next place will be, the world is my oyster as they say, and so many places I want to visit.

PHILOSOPHY

"I dont live in poverty, I got a little bit of money and I've got a healthy body. I'm not going to let stuff get me upset, and I wont let all the little things get me depressed."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Trying to do more, but enjoyed meeting couch surfers in Santander and hosting. I am now planning to leave Korea and travel to South America to study and travel for a while.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Mainly hosting so far, would like to do much more!

Interests

Having fun! Dancing (not very well), eating, cooking, sports, yoga and Pilates..ooh and hula hooping! I used to surf and would like to get back into that, love being in the sea. I like reading but go through phases of reading and not reading, I like it when I make time for it. And animals, I have an amazing leopard outfit, nice and warm for the winter!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had written a few here before but I've been lucky enough to have many amazing experiences, listing them sounds a bit boastful, so I would rather chat about these when we meet :)

Teach, Learn, Share

People who are interesting and have different interests and the same interests, anyone really.
