About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make a little nest for me in the world to live in, have lovley friends and celebrate life :)

ABOUT ME

I'm a British girl but I left home when I was 18 and have spent the last 13/14 years living in various places around the world... I've done a lot of backpacking and feel very grateful for the opportunity to do it. Now I like the idea of finding a little place for me. At the moment I think Spain just sounds wonderful ... Although I do find myself checking flights to new adventures every now and then :)

I love change and having new experiences. Growing and evolving always. I love learning especially about people and ways of life.

I like good conversation, having fun, riding my bike, being in nature, the sea, boats. On top of this I love banter. Good energy and jokes .. who doesn't ?

Dancing tango has dominated my life for some years now. Where I moved to Argentina and danced and trained everyday ...I still dance a lot although I'm open to learning new styles totally.

I meditate and enjoy going to a retreat once a year or so .. I love the amazon jungle and ive spent quite a lot of time there learning sbout plants.

PHILOSOPHY

The world is your oyster.

Do what you can, with what you've got, where you are...

Face to the sunshine and the shadows will fall behind you.

She who dares wins.

I think its important to always keep a positive mental attitude to life and take responsibility for our actions and thoughts.

Always try to be a better person

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing, hosting, forums and meetings... love it!!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met some incredible wonderful people... I have met for dinner, surfed, hosted, been shown around and met up with many new friends... i love it!

Interests

I love to dance, any types from contemporary to salsa, but TANGO is where my heart lies. I enjoy anything that you can express yourself with, such as painting or playing music. And nothing beats a good old sing along ...

I'm also interested in natural medicines and spirituality which has taken me in a some badass travels ...

I love eating well, organic if poss, and scrumptious, and being in the moment which is espeically nice when it's beautiful out. Being outside, walking, sitting and being in nature is wonderful for me, although I do love a good snuggle inside too..

Music, Movies, and Books

I tend to listen to audiobooks at the moment as I work with a my hands and therefore its pretty awesome to listen along. Maybe a nice novel or a book about pyscology... Something spiritual or about personal or buisness development.

I enjoy many different types of music it really depends on what mood or what your doing, from classical piano, tango to African drums as it makes my heart sing, from dub-step music to go out too etc etc.

After being traumatised with movies such as hostel or human centipede, I'd say definitely love something with a wonderful twist.. My favorite film is avatar.. But I usually watch documentries.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Wow, where to start,? Some of my favourite things i've seen include, some of the remote cenotes in Mexico, a 'secret' waterfall in Australia, the Dead Sea in Israel, and waaaaay too many things in India, perhaps the Slums, they really blew my mind... Working on a cruise ship, underwater caves, climbing mountains, like Machu pitchu, working with plant medicines in the jungle

. I'm not stopping yet though!

Teach, Learn, Share

Well it always depends on the vibe to see what we can teach .... Tango is good as I spend years studying. I like to cook so that's fun to share... Stories, ideas philosophies. Just see how it flows.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A happy sharing environment, willing to talk, listen and good vibes...
