About Me

Like most people on Couch Surfing I love travelling. It was the first conversation I had with my boyfriend, Michael and, after 7 years of planning and saving for a round-the-world trip, we're finally on the road! We started in Feb 2019 in South East Asia and we're now in South America, Ecuador travelling south towards Patagonia. We're currently trying to learn Spanish and go on as many hikes as we can. I also love all trips that involve seeing animals!

Later we'll head to New Zealand, Australia, Sri Lanka, India, Nepal, South Africa, Tanzania & Kenya.

Como la mayoría de las personas en Couch Surfing, me encanta viajar. Fue la primera conversación que tuve con mi novio, Michael y, después de 7 años de planificar y ahorrar para un viaje alrededor del mundo, ¡finalmente estamos en el camino! Comenzamos en febrero de 2019 en el sudeste asiático y ahora estamos en América del Sur, Ecuador viajando hacia el sur hacia la Patagonia. Actualmente estamos tratando de aprender español y hacer tantas caminatas como podamos. Tambien, me encanta todos experiencias que implican ver animales.

Más tarde nos dirigiremos a Nueva Zelanda, Australia, Sri Lanka, India, Nepal, Sudáfrica, Tanzania y Kenia.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet knew people and experience places like a local.

Interests

I love chatting to people, cooking for people and tasting new foods too. I work in marketing but am training to be a software engineering. I like to take on new hobbies but can't claim to be good at any of them - I've had a go at playing the drums, ukulele, pottery, gymnastics, and most recently Spanish (though I'm doing ok at that!).

Me encanta chateando con personas, cocinando para personas y probar nuevos alimentos tambien. Trabajo en marketing, pero estoy entrenando para ser ingeniero de sistema. Me gusta tomar nuevas pasatiempos pero no puedo decir que sea bueno en ninguno de ellos. He tratado de aprender la batería, el ukulele, la cerámica, la gimnasia, y el español más recientemente (aunque estoy bien en eso!).

Music, Movies, and Books

I like most music, rock, indie, funk, jazz, classical, folk, 80s/90s pop (not a huge fan of new pop, club music or techno).

Love Arnie films and other ridiculous action films, Mrs Doubtfire, 5th Element, Star Wars, Toy Story & other Pixar films. Guilty pleasure is 13 Going on 30!

I don't really have a favourite book, I like the Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy and The Alchemist.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quit my job and started travelling! Most amazing experience so far was renting a car and driving through the national parks of Northern Thailand, visiting areas rarely visited by non-Thais, meeting friendly locals, tasting excellent food and seeing some of the most unusual, interesting and stunning sights of Thailand.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to practice my Spanish, or could teach you some if you don't know any. I can teach you about digital marketing if you need help with Google ads or Facebook advertising in particular.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd love to share a meal and would be happy to cook and share travel stories.
