ABOUT ME

Hello beautiful people!

I have just moved into a crazy-big house in Birmingham for an ace job working for an organisation that aims to improve trust between faiths, genders, ages, ethnicities and classes across society.

I live in a great area called Moseley Village, which has cafes/bars and a couple of gorgeous pubs that need plenty more exploring. I would be really pleased to meet anyone who wants to discover new and old parts of the city with me.

After uni in London, I spent time on development projects in Nepal and Zimbabwe and have volunteered for other organisations whose focus is to share life skills with socially disadvantaged people affected by past or current conflict.

I am interested in.....having a bloody great time, through conversation, music, dancing, good food, problem solving, just generally trying to be around wonderful people who inspire and motivate me all day long ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Be generous with love and time, relax, rest, forgive, get on with it, keep busy. Never assume, be aware of your perceptions, or they'll make you cross. Be a humanist, be kind because it's good and that's how you be happy

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Before university, I spent 10 months in Barcelona where I used couchsurfing to make many a fabulous friend and I am still in touch with lots of them now :)
In London I hosted a few people and now I'm ready to get on the couchsufing bandwagon again.
