Travelling to Poland soon!

I am an artist and I work with sound, I also like making things - at the moment I am learning to sew and mend cloths . For a job I run art workshops for children and artists with learning disabilities. I am also interested in plants, especially edible things that can be found in the unexpected wilderness of a city.

I have recently discovered an interest in anthropology and think its important for us to look to ancient knowledge to help build our future on earth.

I love to travel and my quest is to discover more of the UK and Europe.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I am here to meet people, strangers, friends, to hear stories, myths and perspectives of a city.

I do not have facebook so I cannot be verified that way, though I would prefer to connect with people in other ways.. I could write a letter?
