Overview
About Me
Sociable English traveller looking to share great experiences and learn as much as I can from other cultures. Friendly and relaxed I get on well with everyone. I come from a loving family, we are very close. Me, my older brother, older sister and Mum and Dad. Born and raised in Wiltshire, England which has beautiful countryside, lots of farms, cows and sheep. My background is in tennis, playing since I was 7 and later on becoming a tennis coach. Also love other sports playing mostly football, badminton, squash, basketball. For me travelling has now become very important in my life. It has changed the way I see the world and it has given me confidence in myself through intense experience and through meditation. It has made me realise how lucky I am :)

Teach, Learn, Share
I am a tennis coach so can give some top tips about how to play. Recently started teaching English as a foreign language in Vietnam. I have started playing the guitar and would love to have a jamming session 🎸 I find TED talks sooo interesting and enjoy listening to podcasts that are similar, so maybe I can teach a lot of random knowledge haha.
What I Can Share with Hosts
My whole array of funny, crazy experiences since I’ve been travelling and from my whole life what have come to be my values and beliefs. I also really enjoy cooking and sharing food with people.
