CURRENT MISSION

To travel everywhere and meet as many people as possible both in London and out :)

ABOUT ME

Hi im Hollie,
I enjoy travelling solo to international destinations and places that give me a bit of culture shock - ITS MY PASSION! so I am always thinking of new places to visit!

I am a bubberly, energetic person and i talk fast and allot lol... I love socialising , meeting new people and doing weird and wonderful things.

I'm not single.
Secondly.. PLEASE REMEMBER THE CS IS NOT A DATING SITE!!!!! I am not interested in anyone who is using CS for dating/sex purposes so please do not write to me or invite me to stay if you are.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just love meeting new people and exploring new places. In fact the more local and unknown, the better :)

I also go to weekly CS events here in London and whenever i go to a new country or area try to participate.

I have hosted but, I've met them at CS events, CS hangouts or whilst travelling and invited them that way. this unfortunately this makes my hosting experience seem little bare :( Be assured I have hosted, for instance I met a guy from Mexico whom i met in Rome and he stayed with me months and not days :)

I prefer meeting people at events or whilst travelling and then inviting them to come to London.
I do still offer hosting if you need somewhere to crash but the above comes first and please be aware that I only host members who have 3 reviews or references for safety reasons.

I can host on most days, but I ask that you dont spend all day in the house... Go explore London!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For my first solo experience I went to China during spring festival, VERY jet-lagged I went for a drink at a not so local reggae bar with some local and non local backpackers... they really should not sell shots of stuff that cheaply..
Anyway I jumped in a taxi and handed this guy a map (2/3am) and he dropped me outside a hutong, I had absolutely no idea where in this hutong my hostel was! i ended up walking around for 2 hours along a busy road (i was drunk, it was snowing and i was wearing a dress) to try and find someone to help me...
A really nice man tried to ignore me but didn't succeed and ended up walking me to my hostel instead of going to work - he spoke no English and only stopped for a "pee" or cigarette - its turn out after the long quiet awkward walk back to the hostel it was his cousins, sisters, aunts or something! I was known by all the backpackers as the girl who walked 2 hours away from the hostel in order to find it ....

However it was pretty frickin amazing I found my way back!

Teach, Learn, Share

Mostly I talk about allot of stuff and all the time - I am sure you will find a portion of it interesting and relevant ;)
