About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"Am I wearing my shoes?"

ABOUT ME

I initially come across as a little shy, but I warm up quickly. I am independent and adventurous and I enjoy having a drink and a laugh. I love the idea of couch surfing because I want to have more than the typical tourist travel experience. I want to get to know some locals and explore their culture.

PHILOSOPHY

Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative
-Oscar Wilde

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I had a fantastic time couchsurfing in Europe and met wonderful people. Now that I'm back home I want to try my hand at hosting some lovely travelers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed with some great hosts when backpacking around Europe and now I want to return the favor by doing some hosting of my own.

Music, Movies, and Books

Love love love The Rolling Stones... LOVE THEM. Classic rock, reggae, folk, Motown. I'm loving Dusty Springfield and Jimmy Cliff at the moment.

Cheesy action movies are my favorite, anything with really good one liners. Total Recall, Sean Connery Bond, Super Troopers.

I really enjoy reading, I never go anywhere without a book. The Moon and Sixpence, On The Road, Dune, anything by WS.Maugham really.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Caving under Budapest! Never been so Dusty in my life but had so much fun.

Teach, Learn, Share

I read a lot so if you ever happen to want some totally irrelevant general knowledge, I'm your girl.
I can also tell you more Rolling Stones trivia than you would ever care to know.
