About Me

• • • ONLY open to hosting women.

I live on Elephantine Island and I teach Yoga and English, mainly working with children.

When I'm not teaching, I'm learning and exploring.
In the city, I enjoy discovering graffiti and street art, going to museums and finding hidden gems (cafes with great cakes or pastries) but mostly walking on alleyways and side streets to feel the slow rhythmic heartbeat of wherever I may be.
I love the sea, being in nature, foraging, learning about flowers and bees, crafting and so much more.
I'm also into sailing and recently got my RYA Skipper license! Nowadays learning to sail The Nile in a felucca; Aswan is such picturesque place to do this!

Also doing a diploma course in Social Studies and Counselling and a Shamanic Beekeeping Apprenticeship 🐝

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to to meet new people, to practice mindful communication and vulnerability, to get curious, get raw and real, experience being human, share and learn how to love people the way they need to be loved while sprinkling delight along my way✨🧚🏽‍♀️
