About Me

lover of the outdoors and bad puns. Realised that it was about time I did more travelling so I'm looking to throw myself out there and to meet all sorts along the way. Currently living in Iceland and enjoying the challenge of learning a new (very difficult!) language and adapting to local ways of living. Hoping to meet decent, funny folk on my travels

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've hosted a couple of people before on couch surfing but have never visited as a guest and would love to try it! I'm visiting Canada for two months in March and April with my friend Gina (https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/georginaweston) where we plan to volunteer on organic farms, after which I'll be heading back to Iceland to work as a trail worker in the mountains
