About Me

At the moment I am travelling through Vietnam from North to south, trying to hike as much as possible :)

Believe that travel opens the mind and the soul to new connections. If we feel the world around us maybe we can understand it better ? It’s crazy how small the world is so we should protect and enjoy it as much as we can.

I am currently working on my first short film which I wrote and directed in north Scotland this past Summer.

I’m hopeless at staying in one place too long, love to travel and work, trying new things.

I worked in the shearing sheds last year in Australia - love to get sweaty.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have alot of friends who have travelled through Couch Surfing who love it and would love to be part of this cool community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with a wonderful couple in Knoxville, Tennessee, as part of a group of seven international/ national exchange students on a last minute planned trip. And they amazingly let us crash in their front living rooms, play with their wonderful pets, gave us ideas to where to eat and what to see, and were so warm and lovely that it was like having a dose of home.
