CURRENT MISSION

To explore more of Europe from my adopted home of Scotland!

ABOUT ME

I'm an easygoing and, when traveling, I love to get to know local people. I'm not a big partier; I prefer hiking, exploring new places, vegan baking and cooking, reading, and writing. I love the challenge of perfecting a vegan cookie, and the satisfaction that comes with finishing a good book. I worked in the fashion industry for a few years, traveled the world until I was broke, worked at home for a while, got my Masters in Scotland and decided to move permanently. I work in a shop in Glasgow while I work on finishing a book to start my writing career. I love to laugh, and if you ask any of my friends, I'm sure they'd tell you I laugh constantly. I look forward to meeting you soon!

PHILOSOPHY

I am a vegan, but don't mind if others aren't :) Sustainability is the name of my game. I try to make sure I'm always learning, and have an open mind. A good book is like a good friend and is meant to be your constant companion through life.

"The book should be a ball of light in one's hand" - Ezra Pound

"If a mirror ever makes you sad, you should know that it does not know you" - Kabir

"Sometimes on the way to a dream you get lost and find a better one." - Lisa Hammond

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've surfed many times before in my travels, and I'm looking to continue those experiences! I currently live in a tiny flat, so unfortunately I can't host anyone at the moment. But I do look forward to hosting when my living situation changes!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Nothing but positive so far, and I hope to continue for many years to come.
