About Me

I have been a teacher for four years. Most recently I have been living in Medellin, Colombia. But now I feel that it is time for me to go. The plan is to travel through Latin America until I have found the next place I can call home. There is so much beauty on this continent, who knows where and when that will be!
I love to meet people, discover new cities as well as just being outdoors in general. My Mum is French and my Dad is English so I am bilingual. I also have lived in Spain and Colombia, so my Spanish is getting pretty good too. I always try my hardest to integrate and learn about the language and culture of the places I am visiting - it's the whole point of my travels in fact!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because it has been recommended to me by many friends who say it's been an amazing way to meet new people and travel a little differently! Every couchsurfing experience so far I have loved, and I'm so looking forward to the next ones!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I think I've done (to date) is walking the Camino de Santiago. I walked just short of 1000km in 5 weeks. I met so many people and learnt so much about them and ultimately about myself. Perhaps it's a little cheesy to say, but it made me truly happy and that is amazing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to be social, so I guess the most important thing I could share is my time, my stories, and good vibes in general- provided my host has the time and inclination.
I also am happy when cooking and always help out around the house.
