Hi! I’m Amy. I love backgammon, coffee and interesting conversation!

I’m currently working on my masters part time while being self-employed. I’m an active member of my trade union and help organise a coffee morning for marginalised people. I regularly volunteer at two local DIY cinemas, i love both film and volunteering so win win!

I love to garden, i have an allotment and plan to spend a lot of my summer there watching my veg grow <3

I love to read! I’m currently learning ukulele. Enjoy meeting new people and can chit chat on a variety of topics haha.

I am 7 years sober but have no issue being around those who’re enjoying a drink!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I used couchsurfing quite a lot when i was travelling between 2015-2020, i met so many wonderful kind fascinating people and it allows me to learn so much more about the local culture and history than wandering the streets and visiting museums would have! I
