Hey! I'm a friendly, chatty person from Scotland, who loves hiking, rock-climbing, travel (of course!) and cooking.

I'm always looking for the next adventure. I love to back-pack around far-flung places and I also love to hear about other people's adventures and interests, and what makes them tick.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and exchanging stories, and while hostelling gets you a chance to do that, I like the idea of meeting locals too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 19 I took myself off to Tajikistan and Kazakhstan...it's better than Borat says!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to keep up my Italian with anyone who speaks this :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will happily make a dinner as a thank you for having me! I'm a serious foodie and at home I sometimes make fresh pasta with my pasta-maker, though I can't promise that since it would probably take my entire holiday to make ;-) Thai or indian curry are my other favourites.

Although I don't have room for regular guests at home, I have a sofabed in London you are welcome to stay on in future, and family in Edinburgh who love to have people stay.
