About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finding my way out of my bowl of spagetti

ABOUT ME

I'm interested in living life to the full, learning new things and visiting new places. I am a beginner surfer and would spend all my time surfing in Morocco if I could - alas I live and work in Norwich! I'm a life coach, personal trainer and Centre Coordinator/Trainer for a project in Norwich that helps people who are out of work and homeless. i love to dance, to be with animals and be outside.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I first heard about this site through a guy called Sam. We met at an ATM that wasn't working in Tahiti having just arrived, neither of us had any money without that bit of technology so we teamed up to find a bank. Stayed at the same hostel, teamed up with a great group of guys and travelled round Tahiti for a few days. Turned out Sam was coming over to New Zealand shortly after that so he came to stay with me.
Hosted NZ and UK, surfed Brazil, Bolivia and Peru.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met a guy called Lam in Vietnam who showed me around.
Hosted a couple of surfers at my place in NZ
Couchsurfing house Recife.
Couchsurfing in Rio and meeting up with couch surfers as I travel - amazing how you start to recognise each other on the bus!!
Hosted CSers at my house in Norwich and take part in regular CS get togethers in Norwich.
