Hey there! I'm a remote working software developer that wants to see the world! (How convenient :D) I spend my free time between friends, gigs and lots of crafting. I can knit, crochet, quilt, cross stitch and just about anything else that seem interesting. I've hosted a lot of couch surfers in the past and I've surfed once when I was in Japan two years ago.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to see as much of the world as possible during my lifetime and I hope to facilitate others seeing my little part of the world in Glasgow. I think when people use couchsurfing properly there's a massive social aspect to it. We all get to share in each others cultures and learn more about the places we visit.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I mentor with CoderDojo Scotland, an organisation that aims to teach young people about technology and programming. I ran one of the workshops at their first all girl dojo in Scotland. It was a great experience having about 70 girls all excited about computer science and I was completely exhausted by the end of it! A fantastic event and I hope I get to do many more in the future!

Teach, Learn, Share

As I'm a software developer, if you're interested I can teach you a thing or two about that. I taught one surfer how to make her first website and add some basic functionality to it. I feel I'm also very patient so if your trip is an excuse to work on your English I'm more than happy to chat away. I can also teach you some arts and crafts or baking!

What I Can Share with Hosts

My positive personality! I'm also known for my pancake making skills. If you've seen anything in my profile and want to learn more I love teaching people. I think it's so important to consider your impact on others and how you can leave the world a little better because you were there.
