CURRENT MISSION

My boyfriend and I set out in Aug 2009 to sail gradually around the world... though now we have decided to sell the boat to move on to cool jobs faster. We ended up in Fiji, and are now working as dive instructors.

ABOUT ME

I was born in Scotland, and started traveling very early with my family. I was hooked from the start, and have now lived on 4 continents, and worked as biologist, a journalist, a TV producer, a captain/hostess on a sailboat, and now a scuba instructor.

PHILOSOPHY

To do as much as I can, and see as much as I can of the world, so that when I am old I won't look back and wish I had done more... and never to be boring!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As I am working my way around the world currently with my boyfriend, we sadly don't have a couch to offer, but we look forward to the day can offer one up. In the meantime, we tell people about how cool the CS project is!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None so far... but having had so many good recommendations lately, we're on the verge of trying it for the first time!

Interests

Travel, food, sailing, scuba diving, film... just about anything outdoorsy... and of course meeting people from different cultures.

Music, Movies, and Books

Love reading... wish I could still see as many movies and I managed while living in NY. I enjoy music, but the passion for that falls to Tadd, my boyfriend.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many... but at this moment, swimming with Whale sharks off the Isla Mujeres in Mexico, jumps to mind!

Teach, Learn, Share

Scuba, sailing, Spanish... anything that I can offer.
