I'm currently doing teacher training in London to teach French and German in secondary schools. I studied Russian and Politics, also in London, but love the countryside, where I'm from. I've worked in primary and secondary schools, and, as the eldest of six children, I love working with kids and young people. I've also worked at holiday camps.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love discovering other cultures (and learning more about them, always more to learn!) and speaking their languages. It's amazing seeing all the variety in the way people from different countries think and act, beautiful. If I could retire now I would perhaps just travel the world getting to know as many different cultures as I could.

Interests

I enjoy writing poetry about nature, every-day life and its contradictions. I enjoy the countryside (or try to whilst living in London (!)), walks, a good cold beer, cooking good food, climbing trees, and catching up with friends.
