About Me

Lover of all things wild and free, strong supporter of equality and community building, interested in spending time with hilarious and creative people!

I've lived in London for 6 years which is where I studied Anthropology, lived life with great friends and partied a lot. It is a place full of fun things to do (museums, galleries, parks, good food, drinking, theatre, gigs) these things were my life and I would to incorporate them into my future but I didn't want an admin job which are a given there so, I'm adding some years back onto my life by breathing the fresh air on the coast of Northern California learning about market gardening. I'm trying to figure the whole "about me" thing out by learning different skills and I'm doing that by exploring other countries at the same time!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been reading about couchsurfing and how willing people are to generously share their space but also their lifestyle and community and what better way to connect with a place than by sharing a space with someone that walks what will be for me unfamiliar streets on the daily. Really it's to grasp an idea of what it could be like to just be there and simply gain an idea of how best to get to the bus stop or where is a good place to buy bread or get a coffee, menial things I assume one may knowing having lived in space for a certain about of time.

Interests

I'm very easy going, I'm up for anything, I love hiking, cycling, generally being outside and but I also love the beach, chilling out, swimming and napping and eating well between all of those things!

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to a lot of varied music from queen B to black keys, to florence and the machine, to the Supremes, Ray Charles to Chance the rapper, you name it I love it! Love a good rom com, but also the batman trilogy.
Rather than my favourite book the last book I read which I loved was Captain Corelli's Mandolin.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Developed 7ft long pictures in the middle of dry lake bed at midnight with an artist while listening the sounds of a derelict factory she had turned into a musical instrument and broadcast on pirate radio....

Teach, Learn, Share

I would be very happy to trade my english for other short phrases in a different language and I will share stories as much or as little as you want... please feel free to tell me to stop. P.s I'm not as annoying as I have made myself out to be, I already feel like telling myself to shut up.
