About Me
ABOUT ME
I love a lot of things, sometimes find it hard to keep track of them all but the main ones are people, expression (dance, art , music, costume, festivals), new languages (they are the best window to a new culture) film, photography, collaborating and sharing ideas.
I have travelled since before I can remember and feel most comfortable when I am on the move so love any opportunity to get up and go and see somewhere new.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
The best way to get to know a new place is to get to know it's people.....so this seems like the perfect place to start!
