Hello. :) My name is Caitlin.
I'm a creative, active, friendly, kind and compassionate person.
I'm a personal trainer and have my own business doing this. As such I have a great interest in all things health and fitness related. Something I'd be more than happy to share with whoever I stay with. Previously my career was as a cake decorator making sculptural and crazy celebration cakes (think Ace of Cakes and similar), which I did for 8 years.

My interests include Physical Activity in many forms (Yoga, Muay Thai, Gymnastics Rings, HIIT, Calisthenics, Hand-balancing, running) Art, Craft, Tinyhouse living, Meditation, Cooking/baking, Healthy living.

I tend to be on my feet and moving about. I'm not the best at being idle. I'm a total fidget but also love my own quiet space. I am tidy and organised. I will make no impact on your day to day activities as I'm very independent and determined never to be an inconvenience of any kind. I am happy to work around you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here in the hopes of meeting new and interesting people, exploring new places and trying new things.

I love the idea of meeting people who live locally and getting a true insight into the reality of places, rather than just the touristy surface that is put across to visitors.
