About Me

Travelling the world learning about what it takes to live the good, sustainable and loving life! I'm really just having an education in rewilding myself :)

Currently I am in Europe, making the most of my EU passport (thanks Mama!), and looking around some of the beautiful places, seeing where I can nest for a while.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I wish to offer my couch when i am back in my country and appreciate others couches while i am away!

I have offered my couch in the distant past when I was a young student. I have not yet stayed at another's 'couch' just yet. Have only recently returned to the website after a long hiatus (was working and living at a school, not allowed visitors to come and stay :( ) and during that time, I unfortunately deleted what I thought was an unused email, that was in fact linked to my CS profile and thus never received mails from that time - apologies to those who sent messages!

Hope to remedy this in future by returning to the CS website and being a golden host when I settle somewhere!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent my recent 30th birthday trekking up to Lebanon's highest peak, snowy, still in the middle of summer, with Lebanon's most knowledgable indigenous plant botanist! Hours of looking at bugs, rocks and tiny tiny plants...

Teach, Learn, Share

Anything I can - we often don't know what we have to share or receive until it is happening, in my experience.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a qualified Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncturist and I travel with my needles. Can also offer health advice, yoga sessions, an ayurvedic walking massage.. can teach you how to read your tongue! Am always up for a skill share.
