CURRENT MISSION

Acquisition of French and Russian languages whilst eating as much delicious food as possible.

ABOUT ME

I live in the wonderful city of Bristol and work for a small charity which works to get Christian students more involved in social action, fundraising and advocating for change. I speak French, Russian and English but am always up for learning languages and encountering different cultures.

I love making new friends, seeing strange films, going to interesting gigs and cooking delicious food.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a Christian which makes Jesus the biggest influence in my life. I am seeking to live a simple life, to love people and this planet and to have great relationships.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived with a local family for 5 months whilst I was working with an HIV/AIDS charity in D.R Congo. They adopted me as their live-in daughter, taught me Swahili and were a window into a completely different culture. I loved travelling around town, singing in a local choir and getting involved in rural farming projects. It was a hard but incredibly formative 5 months.

Teach, Learn, Share

If I'm hosting, we can practise English/French/Russian together. I would love to introduce you to my friends and show you around my home town - including all the best independent shops, cafes, bars and museums which Bristol has to offer.
If I'm surfing with you, I would love to cook you a meal and exchange some recipes. I love storytelling and talking about the places I've been and the people I've met.
