Hey :) well my name is Catriona or Cat or Nini depending how you know me! ;) Will answer to any or all of them though, so up to you :)

I live on the beautiful Isle of Lewis (although visit in summer or you'll be scared off by the relentless heavy rain and gale force winds) haha! 🙈

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

Love meeting people from different places and backgrounds, sharing a bit of my own life and learning from theirs! :) Brings the world to me when I can't get out to see all the world for myself :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Wow that's a tough one...listen to pretty much any music especially if it's really chilled although I hate to admit I do of course love stuff in the charts as well 🙈

Love reading and any books or movies that are based on real life experiences, war, history etc I love! Although being s typical girl I do love a good old easy watching rom com :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Was in Musoma, Tanzania last year for 2 weeks volunteering with a team from my home. Our main project was building a house for a local young family, but was involved in Health care work and getting to know the people in the villages helping out wherever we saw a need. Amazing, eye opening and EXTREMELY humbling! Dont think we realise just how privileged a life the majority of us has.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a pretty open book, so anything folk want to know about me I'm happy to share and I like to think I'm a friendly personable lass (who loves to chat!) so am mega interested in you as well. Making new friends is one of the best things about this so if that happens, yay! :)

I love cooking although I don't think I'm a wonderful one (more of a throw it in and hope for the best type!) so happy to cook for/with you and just hang out with a big cuppa or a wine :)

Countries I’ve Visited

China, Tanzania, Tunisia, Turkey, United States
