ABOUT ME
I mumble a lot, although surprisingly well spoken when you can hear me. I'm a vegan veterinary nurse so looove animals. trustworthy, I like to think I'm always there for my friends when they need me. can be messy but never dirty and keep my mess to my own room. I hate bad hugs. can be quite shy at first but usually come out of my shell fairly quickly. have a quirky family so can deal with the crazies.
PHILOSOPHY
try to love yourself, don't cause any harm to others (human or non human), try to see the best in people, respects others beliefs and feelings
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I can't host as we have strict rules but am up for hanging out and day trips. I know most of the veggie restaurants and always like an excuse to visit them. Also always up for tourist stuff, especially museums, gigs and nights out.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
not much experience yet, have had 1 surfer when I lived on my narrowboat, met a surfer passing through London, who is still a very good friend and has hosted me when I visited the states. Travelled around the USA for a few months at a time in 2014/2015 and surfed the west coast a little. Met some amazing people who've have remained friends, had a fab time and plan on surfing more in the future.
Interests
its my passion to work with animals, especially primates although i don't have much experience in that field yet.
in day to day life i love movies, live music, local history (museums etc), anything animal related and a good night out.

What I Can Share with Hosts
Free veterinary nurse exams and advice on any pets! But seriously, love a good natter (that means chat in case you don't speak common) and I've travelled a lot and love to share my experiences with others and to hear about other peoples lives.
