Overview
About Me
I love books and film and tea and theatre and ballet, and people (mostly), and drinking wine and dancing and anything foreign and I like laughing!
PHILOSOPHY
Don't step on anybody else's toes. As simple as that.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Looking for an adventure. Let's go find one ~
I have just left my job - I loved it very much, especially all the books... But I eventually decided that it was time for a change. So now I am on a new adventure: I am moving to Europe BUT I am first there for a few months on holiday for a while, while I explore on that side. So I will be looking to experience new European countries, places, people, and everything! I hope to meet you :)
