About Me

I'm Jen, just moved to London from Brighton, and before that, I lived in South Africa for 3 years. I currently work for a charity that tries to nurture social integration amongst young people, and another charity that runs cooking classes with kids, young people and families. I've also recently started my own t-shirt business. Fingers crossed.
!
I love cooking, eating, talking about life, philosophy, the planet and getting creative by any means possible! I love meeting new people and learning about their experience of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've never couchsurfed before but I love to travel and meet people along the way who actually live in the places I visit. So I thought Couchsurfing is a good place to start.
