About Me
CURRENT MISSION
planning my escape...
ABOUT ME
I love the outdoors and I love travel. I often attempt to combine the two. Apart from this I enjoy snoozing in the sunshine, drinking wine, and cooking good food!
I love meeting people, I'm always interesting (maybe bordering on nosy!) in other peoples lives and experiences. I've done a bit of travelling on my own and I think that made me pretty happy to chat to and befriend anyone.
I like having spontaneous adventures: I never plan things too far in advance, and I try not to take myself too seriously. I try to be laid back and take a 'cross that bridge when we come to it' kind of attitude.
PHILOSOPHY
When I was a baby my parents found me eating the remains of a mouse that my pet cat had caught, killed, and left on the doorstep half eaten. From that day on I try to never been afraid of trying something new...even if it seems strange!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
At the moment I can't host due to my housemates :( but I still try and participate as much as I can by surfing when I go travelling. The main way I participate is by spreading the word: I tell everyone about couchsurfing! I think the enthusiasm must be infectious because I have persuaded quite a few people into giving it a go so far!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
One of the experiences that I will always remember is when I stayed with Vladimir and Misenka in Bratislava, who not only introduced me to traditional Slovak cuisine, but helped me break into their university and gatecrash the University ball.
Interests
Travelling, of course. I've not been to many places but the places I have visted have inspired me to keep travelling...there is something about it that has got me hooked...its impossible to describe but i'm sure if you are on this website, reading this, you know exactly what I mean.
I love animals, and have had horses since I was young. I grew in the countryside near the beach so I have always loved nature and swimming.

Music, Movies, and Books
I will watch, listen, or read pretty much anything. I'm quite open minded...variety is the spice of life!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Travelling alone across South America was the most amazing thing I have ever done. The huge variety of beauty in the natural world never ceases to amaze me.
Teach, Learn, Share
I always want to learn something new, so anything anyone can teach me would be great! I'll have to think about what I can teach anyone...I'm getting quite good at cooking, so maybe that!
