About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring the important things in life, or trying to figure out what they are at least, and trying to squeeze as much in as possible.

ABOUT ME

I have been lucky to have been exposed to all different kinds of talented people from all over the world in high school at this place called Interlochen in Michigan. I went to drama school in London and then began working in cabaret and burlesque. My Russian acting teacher once told me, "Caroline, stop giggling! You'll never find a serious husband!" - This turned out to be true! In January 2014 I married my husband Liam who does stand up comedy.

I am independent and I I love learning new things from new people.

PHILOSOPHY

More often than not, people will regret NOT doing things rather than regret giving it a try.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had Couchsurfers to my old London flat, which was great (it's much harder now in a one bedroom) and did a 2 month trip around Europe with my ex-boyfriend and stayed with some of the most amazing people I've ever met.

Interests

Theatre, art, music, dance, snowboarding, anything new and different, water: oceans, rivers, lakes, bath tubs, good food, good wine, good friends, and good conversations. History, literature... although I admit, I'm not as well versed as I'd like to be. I like sharing with people about the things I love, sharing strange philosophies, ideas, and possibilities.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love films and there are always more i need to see! Anything from classic oldies like It Happened One Night, to new crappy comedies.

Music - Old Jazz and big band, Die Antwoord, Beyonce, 60s soul, 70s rock, 2000 alternative, Dolly Parton - I got it all covered.

I'm a non-fiction person a lot of the time and love biographies - Amy Poehler, Tina Fay, and Mindy Kaling are all currently on rotation.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I performed at the Burlesque Hall of Fame in Los Vegas in 2013 and performed for 2 months in South Africa!

Teach, Learn, Share

Come to London, we will try to find you a theatre experience you won't forget... hopefully. Maybe take you into the depths of East London, who knows. But with me, there's always a 75% chance of meeting an interesting character of some sort. I haven't travelled much at all and I am so interested in other cultures, so I am willing and open to learn everything and anything I can possibly cram into my brain/experience. If you're in London, I will point you to the best cabaret/burlesque shows we have to offer!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am travelling now mainly for work, so if you want to come to a show I can definitely get you a ticket or two! I'm always up for fun activities, but I am also happy to do my own thing if you just don't have time to play tour guide. I get it. I will have lots of youtube videos to show you and will happily bring some London treats with me to share. And wine.
