I love travelling and connecting with people from all over the planet :)

My latest dream is to create a business learning and teaching cultural dances whilst travelling the world.

As well as dance and culture, I love and am absolutely fascinated by animals - especially dogs, primates and insects. I also have a soft spot for water buffalo, having had an absolutely breath-taking experience with one in the south of Laos.

I love being amongst nature and feeling the sunshine on my face.

I am fun, exciting, interesting, extroverted, caring and trustworthy, and quite random.. I change my haircut often - I thoroughly enjoy doing this :D
Meeting caring, interesting, like-minded people brings me so much joy and hope.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people. To learn. To explore. To experience. To share. To love.

The only thing constant is change.
