Overview
About Me
Horticulturalist Londoner with fab sites and designs under my belt such as V&A museum, ITV and Bernie Spain gardens.
Naturally, I am a keen gardener, thus love and respect nature.
I have arty re-purpose creative streak. Try to live by "want not, waste not"
I treat others the way I like to be treated myself, therefore I am polite and friendly, with good manners, respectful of all cultures, ages or ethnic backgrounds.
I like music (rock, jazz, classical, independent and world music), sadly don't have enough time for it due to study commitments and I am always on the go.
I believe I can exist without modern gadgets, but they are damn useful (sometimes)!
I can tango ;-)
I like to inspire others within my set of knowledge, skills and experiences.
I don't watch TV or news, this helps me to stay in a happy bubble
Did my first poem slam in February 2019..still buzzing from the perffomance adrenaline ;-D
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I went on an adventure trip to India for two months as my 40th reward from "me to me".
It wasn't a self discovery trip (I think I am ok on that front), but I really enjoyed discovering and exploring this unique country and its people with whom I stayed with. I fully embraced each door/home that opened to me, their culture, their traditions, religions and so much more .. What a fascinating way to travel!
This traveling experience allowed me to explore the flora of India within different regions, which is also my horticultural interest.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've traced a student in Sydney who lost her diary on the train with $100 inside it purely by investigating the diary. It took a bit of a time, but it was priceless seeing her face when I passed it back to her in a college she studied at.
She didn't even knew she lost it (so a bit shocked seeing it in my hands), but was chaffed because she was collecting the money for the class towards come kind of a college trip ;-)
