About Me

ABOUT ME

I am a woman who has travelled extensively through Asia and Europe recently. By hosting I hope to keep my enthusiasm for travelling, as well as having the chance to meet new people. I work fulltime. I live close to the city centre and am an outdoors person.

PHILOSOPHY

People are more important than things. The best times are had when the plans fail.
