Hi! I'm a 22 year old girl from the UK, making my way around New Zealand and later Australia. I'm from Hampshire but have spent the past 4.5years in Yorkshire, studying and working, and have decided to go on an adventure!

Following the competition of my masters degree, I'm taking a break from education whilst exploring this great big world of ours.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I want to meet some real people, and make some different experiences to the regular tourist trail. I've stayed with family friends abroad and have loved immersing myself into regular life in those countries. I love getting tips and advice on things to do!

Interesses

I hold a MSc in Forensic Speech Science, where I learnt about different accents and dialects, and how speech can be used as evidence in court. I'm a pretty keen runner, and will be running on my travels as a way to stay fit in preparation for my second marathon in October 2017! I swam and played water polo at university, doing open water events as well as in a pool. I do really like eating, particularly trying new veggie and vegan food, and experimenting! I absolutely adore cats, and my friends have a labrador puppy who is the soppiest dog I've ever met.

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

I have a voracious reading appetite which isn't that picky! Particularly like thrillers/crime or satire, as well as dystopian fiction. I've a shocking range of music of my iPod, so I'm not too sure that I've got a favourite! Currently having a Simon & Garfunkel revival.

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Namibia: the whole country was breathtaking.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

Lingusitics! Facts about your accent (particularly vowels). I can also teach some piano and violin if you aren't into sport chat! I've picked some nifty recipes I can share, particularly veggie/vegan foods.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

A tidy, clean, and social guest. Not afraid to help out with dishes etc.
