About Me

I am just about to set out travelling again for the second time in my life.
I love to travel, explore and meet knew people and always up for a laugh.

I went travelling for 3 years before, around Australia and New Zealand. It was an awesome experience and I just love turning up in a new pace where I know nobody and just have a bag on my back.

I decided that I had to stop travelling for a while and focus on getting myself some kind of profession.

I went home to Scotland with the intention of getting qualified and experienced in my trade as a personal trainer so that when the time finally came to go travelling again I had more options available to me.

I have been working as a personal trainer in Edinburgh for the last 3 and half years and time has finally arrived for me to leave again.

I am heading to Canada now and have literally no plans for when I get there.
I want to roam free and just meet some new amazing people.

Really hope couch surfing will be the way forward for me when I arrive.

I am super chilled out and I'm not especially fussy about anything, just looking to have some great experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing in the hopes that I can find some great like minded people, that can hopefully tell me about what is good to do in the area, maybe hang out and make some memories.

Music, Movies, and Books

Game of Thrones is also awesome.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Iv'e spent the last 3 and half years building my own freelance Personal Trainer business.

I had very little knowledge in any marketing or in how to manage a business in anyway really.

So I just spent the whole time learning from every single mistake you can possibly do really.

But I learnt how to do it and have now funded my new travels through it, which i'm pretty proud of.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am very into practicing meditation and mindfulness, and i'm always happy to sit down and practice with people.
Health and fitness is my profession and i will happily cook up a nice meal for anyone.
I can play a bit of guitar, not amazingly i'll be honest. Whislt I spent a lot of time practising when I was younger I did seem to manage to miss out the whole rythm and timeing aspect of the whole thing. Which I acknowldge are fairly fundamental aspects to playing music.
I always want to learn new things, so I'd be excited to see what any one has to share.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am happy to share any and all of my skills if people are interested to learn and I will happily cook and clean for my host at every corner.
