My husband Cassian and I are just back from travelling the world for the last 20 months. We are very keen to keep the travelling spirit alive and meet others who are still travelling, we also want to be able to 'pass on' the good deeds and incredible hospitality that we received whilst we were on the road.

We spent the whole of 2018 in east and central Africa and the first half of 2019 in Sri Lanka and India. The summer was spent in Canada, where we hitch-hiked from Vancouver to Halifax.

I practices yoga and meditation and absolutely different cultures and people. Cass is into his running. We are both very active and like being outside, walking, hiking, camping and nature swimming. Food is a big deal for us and everywhere we go we make sure to try all the delicious food and dishes local to the area. I also write a food blog which is all about people, food and culture: www.peopleimeetandfoodtheyeat.com

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from all walks of life.
To 'pass on' the hospitality and kindness we received whilst on our travels.
To be open-minded and generous hearted.
