Overview
About Me
Starting in June 2016 Jamie & I have been travelling (& working) together. Before this we spent 5 months working in the ski resort of Val d'Isere (France) and before that we lived in a tent together for 6 months working on a campsite in Sarlat (France).
We are nature and animal lovers. Both most comfortable when we are within reach of hills or mountains as opposed to a beach or city setting.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
We started our travel adventure in Sri Lanka, we spent 2 months seeing as much of the island as possible and made the extra effort to visit areas such as Jaffna and Mannar that other travellers didn't include in their itinerary.
We are now in India making our way south from Chennai through Tamil Nadu. We have 4 months here in India, where we plan to move up through Kerela, Goa, and the north ending with 5-days of England vs India test cricket in November.
Up next is Nepal, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Singapore, Malaysia and more.... making our way towards our final destination New Zealand.
We would love to Couchsurf as we travel to meet people with different points of view and life experiences. We enjoy learning about the areas that people live in and could maybe get some tips on activities to do in the area.
