About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel, learn, see, listen, share, laugh, participate!

ABOUT ME

I am originally from London and am now back living here after a year living in Vitoria-Gasteiz in the north of Spain. I'm easy going and love meeting new people, having adventures and discovering amazing things!

Currently studying to become an Occupational Therapist - it allows me to do amazing things and meet amazing people! I'm always happy to learn something new from anyone and everyone.

PHILOSOPHY

"Optimist; someone who figures that taking a step backward after taking a step forward is not a disaster, it's a cha-cha." -Robert Brault

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love my couch, and love having people on it! And other people's couches too, of course. It's a fantastic way to meet real and amazing people who have great things to show and share with you that aren't necessarily on the pages of the lonely planet!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I lived in Spain, me and my housemates hosted various couch surfers. Have just had my first great experience as a surfer in Medellin, Colombia and can't wait to do more. At the moment I don't have my own place but as soon as I do I want to host again! And would love to stay with people all over the world :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to the 2012 Olympic games. I walked on the Great Wall of China. I paraglided in France. I rode an ostrich in South Africa. I got stuck in a the wine battle in Rioja, Spain.

Teach, Learn, Share

I taught myself how to knit and play the guitar. After spending this summer in Japan I really want to start learning Japanese. I can play the clarinet and the piano and love to have people to play along with me. I spent two years teaching English and can teach Spanish too! Or would love any opportunity to chat in Spanish again.
