I returned to England in April 2016, after living and teaching in Thailand for three years. Since I came home, I have been working for a charity, teaching a programme called DebtAware. It's financial education for Year 5 and 6's, always fun. I volunteer for a local Brownies too, we wrote pen pal letters to my friends class in Thailand! :D

I am keen to see more of the UK and Europe, and what better way than through the eyes of a local? Even if you don't have a place to stay and tips on local areas are always appreciated.

I love being outdoors and hiking (although I'm certainly no pro!), reading, cooking and then eating of course!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I visit a place I like to really get involved in the local culture and think couch surfing is the best way to meet the locals

Music, Movies, and Books

I've just finished reading the English translation of Hermann Hesse's, Narcissus and Golmund. It was a beautiful and thought provoking read. (maybe one day I'll read it in German?) :D

One of my favourite authors is Rohinton Mistry, he writes stories based on life in India, I have never been but one day wish to visit. "Tales of the Friozha Baag" is a series of short stories that I enjoyed, hmm, I think I'll have to reread it.
