Overview
About Me
Down to earth, open, honest, passionate, nature and animal lover.
I love exploring the outdoors, so I run my own local business dog walking, which let's me play and run with pooches till my hearts content and also gives me the freedom to travel as I'm self employed.
Before dog walking (8 years or so ago) I spent a nearly a decade working at music festivals, aswell as running my own festival clothes swapshop in a rainbow geodesic dome :) During that time I met some really amazing people and experienced some awesome music.
For the last few UK winters I've been travelling to Arambol, Goa, and was fortunate enough to spend 5 months there last year and 2 months this year :) I absolutely love Goa, the people, vibe and place but am also looking to adventure to some new places in the future, and a big dream of mine is Portland, Oregon.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am hoping to travel to amazing new places, meet new people and experience new cultures :)
