Actualmente en un viaje de trabajo, inspiración y tratando de mejorar en castellano!

Me encantaría cantar contigo, hacer un pastél para ti, ayudar en tu huerto o en cualquier evento pongas, hablar de politica, o traducir tu poema favorito al ruso.

Normally I'm based in the UK. I've done the journey between London and Moscow by train and coach a few times, via some unlikely routes.

For work I´m lucky enough to have a job supporting folk fighting fuel poverty, climate change and Big Oil.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Estoy aquí para conocer a gente con quien quizas compartamos algo.
I haven´t been on here in a while but have hosted a bunch when I was a student.

Queer and feminism
Translation (I *really* want to translate stories from Pineapple Water for the Lady by Viktor Pelevin, but he has official translators already)
