ABOUT ME
I am passionate, pensive, explorative, open minded and hearted.
I enjoy reading, eating and making food, baking, running and practicing yoga and mediation - I'm doing my yoga teacher training in Nepal this year, 2018. I'm a visual and experiential learner. I like seeing art, nature, doing anything outdoorsey, the curling up somewhere warm with a book and a cup of tea.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have no fixed place of residence so all i have to offer at the moment is myself. My participation involves offering good old conversation and a rough guide to London activities and festivities.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've stayed at a (wwoof) free house, farm house, in Mengara, Italy; which has to have been one of the most refreshing and rewarding experiences i've had in my short life so far. *Mmm fresh figs.*
I had a last minute stay, along with my boyfriend, when we were in need of a bed in Berlin. I've travelled and lived in a number of different countries and met and stayed with travellers from all over the world.
