About Me

I'm an outgoing gender-queer/transgender person who loves all sorts of adventures, and when travelling I love getting to know a place with someone who lives there, to get an idea and a feel of what life there really is like.

Having initially left for a typical one year Round the World trip, I ended up living and working in one of the countries I visited: Bolivia, and haven't looked back since.

I also enjoy the small things in life: for me, there's also nothing like a nice cold drink in a pub; I am partly British after all... Bolivia is actually a great place to do that too!

I must say I'm a little shy at first but give me a chance (and maybe a drink or two) and you'll see that I'm really open minded and love a good chat about anything. I'm very interested in pretty much everything and even more so when I know nothing about it. It's what makes life interesting!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why am I on Couchsurfing...
I think it's pretty straightforward isn't it? To offer a place to crash (even if it is a pretty basic place) for people who are looking for that, as well as getting to know them and sharing my inside tips about La Paz, and to also have those opportunities when I'm travelling.

Interests

Pretty much anything outdoors will have me interested really.

Photography - Although still a beginner, I love that feeling you get when you're proud of a shot! If anyone has tips I will gladly take note!

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently reading a book about the Uruguayans that had a plane crash in the Andes many years ago, and how some survived... It's pretty interesting!

But I do actually prefer watching a film :)... Off the top of my head: Intouchables, Man on Fire, Nemo, Avengers, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've taken ayahuasca and had a pretty strong experience to say the least!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd be over the moon to share anything I can that could be useful to someone!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share conversations and some tips about La Paz...
But I definitely can't cook for the life of me, so for your own safety, let's not even go there :P
