Overview
About Me
Guess I count as a grown up young professional (whatever that means) who migrated to the big city aka London. I'm still a student inside though, with a full-on travel bug and I try to get away whenever I can. I studied languages and am keen to travel, meet new people and gain new experiences. Portuguese and Hebrew are the current passions, so I'd love a practice partner! I'm also a Eurovision fanatic. Don't judge me :-p
Someone once wrote about me that I'm British "in the best possible modern sense"... I have no idea what that means, but I'll take that as a compliment?! :-p Maybe it's partly because I use all of the sarcasm. I have a good sense of humour, don't take myself too seriously and tend to get on with just about anyone :-)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Staying in someone's actual home is just so much better than staying in a sterilised hotel. Couchsurfing is an ideal way of meeting kind, open, fun people who can give a real insight into the place you're staying. It leads to interesting conversations, great discoveries and lasting friendships.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The Jailbreak challenge- a task where my team had to get as far away from Oxford as possible within 36 hours without spending any money. We got to Monaco :-) It was all in the name of charity and was one of the most intense 36 hours of my life. A total emotional rollercoaster but something I'll never forget.
