CURRENT MISSION

To get away from Britain for a long time and to meet awesome people.

ABOUT ME

I am fun loving, engaging and friendly. I live for the good times and am trying to find my niche in this life.

PHILOSOPHY

We place our own happiness in others people's hands and see the world through our own rose-tinted glasses. Half the time things aren't as they seem and most of the time we lack the patience, desire or the strength to find out what they are.
I'm currently trying to find out what I really, really want to do and this carries on going through my head!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Traveled through South America and I will show people exactly the same hospitality and kindness and sense of adventure other people have given me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Travelled through South America...met some great people through here.

Interests

I love writing- if I can could have one future occupation it would be to be a travel journalist. I ride horses, love skiing and running. I also have a big interest in 20th century world history. I am also extremely interested in people- I honestly believe everyone has something to teach and show you. Sounds a bit weird but whenever I get down about life, I think of all the people I am yet to meet.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies- American Beauty and Moulin Rouge are my all time favourites. But I like random ones such as Green Park and Layer Cake and many others.
Books- Hunter S Thompson!! If I could write half as well as he could, I'd consider my life very much improved.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My favourite place I've been so far is South Africa so I'm going to start with training young racehorses for events such as the Durban Gold Cup in summer 2011 as my most amazing experience so far. The South Africans are such wonderful people and I felt really humbled by the history of their country.
I've had many amazing experiences but I think you'd be hard pressed to beat skiing off piste in the alps. I know its a bit of a cliche but I've seen some amazing wildlife whilst doing this.

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't feel like I have much to teach other than being super out-going which most travelers are and learning to role with the punches. If you speak another language, that is awesome- please teach me. If you can show me some hidden gems in your city and your culture, please do.
