CURRENT MISSION

to travel, meet new people, learn new things and just enjoy being young, free and independant

ABOUT ME

I'm very new to this, but wow- what a great way to see the world and meet people- exactly what I am eager to do! I am currently a student at Edinburgh University, but got the travel bug baaaad a few years ago when I traveled for 6 months. Although at present I am pretty tied to studies, I just can't wait until I can throw on my backpack and explore again!!

For me, it's all about being around good company-Whether that be meeting new people or spending quality time with my friends and family- I really am a people's person ( as much as I do enjoy my own company from time to time!) Always eager to meet new and interesting people!!

PHILOSOPHY

I live to laugh, to learn and to just enjoy everything there is to be enjoyed in life- from the people to the places....

''We live in deeds, not years: In thoughts not breaths; In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart throbs'' Aristotle

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Interests

I love meeting people, socialising- whether it be idle chitchat, drunkern banter or indepth conversations about life...if you know me you will fully appreciate my ability to talk (perhaps too much?!), but also listen- you're all so interesting to me whatever you have to say.

*Reading- from the serious stuff to guiltless chicklits!

*Writing- perfect way to channel my rants/thoughts/ponderings

*Drawing/doodling/art- be warned: do not hand me a pen..I will doodle attack the nearest thing to me!

*Eating/cooking- I am quite obsessed with food actually, hence: http://thehungryromantic.tumblr.com
