About Me

I am 24 year old English backpacker. I have been away from home since November 2012, spending my time in South East Asia, New Zealand and Australia where I worked and lived. I am about to head to Central America where I will travel with a few friends and then continue to South America, hopefully teaching English as I go. I'm an outgoing kind of person and pretty much get on with everyone!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been backpacking for a few years now and love to meet new people. I think couch surfing is a fantastic way to move around by meeting up with locals and sharing some great experiences!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Saved a mans life in Malaysia.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have my basic TEFL qualification and would love to practise teaching- so please feel free to ask!! I am also trying to learn a bit of Spanish but the going is pretty slow. I am a Marine biology graduate which I am extremely passionate about and hope to pursue in the future.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Unfortunately I don't have a permanent home at the moment, but I would love to offer a couch when I eventually do settle. When I do I will offer pizza and beer.
