Very happily married to Chris for 4 years. I'm 57 years old and live in Hampshire. Have spent my working life with troubled teenagers and have had lots of fun.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Having just given up work for good I've become fascinated by trying to live outside the usual economic structure. Couch surfing seems to be full of people who are excited by life, meeting new people, having fun and for whom money is definitely not the first priority.

Interests

Growing food in our forage garden and cooking it with my fabulous husband Chris. Spending time with my granddaughter. Spinning, weaving, reading and learning. Cycling. Family and friends. Climate activism.

• agroforestry

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to sing and enjoy all types of music. Only non-fiction for years as there's so many wonderful new things to learn. Movies occasionally but our TV is in a cupboard...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being arrested in August 2021 at the London climate protests. At the age of 57 I'm rather proud of my criminal record!

Teach, Learn, Share

Spinning and 3 types of simple weaving.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We're both fairly calm and considerate I think.
