Hellllllllooooooo

I'm Jill. About to travel around Colombia, and then on to Peru and Central America. The plan is to be away for a few months - learn lots, finally start doing yoga, attempt dancing, try karaoke, meet wonderful new people, and try new things!

I love nutrition, cycling on flat paths, being outdoors - especially near water, podcast addict, scuba diving...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To have a different travelling experience to hosteling - meet new people, and learn more about their culture and country.

Interests

I spend a lot of time cycling down the river behind my house towards London, going between thinking, and listening to either music and podcasts.

I have been a scuba diver since I was a wee girl - thanks to my Grandad. I use to volunteer in scuba diving centres in exchange for free dives.

I have travelled on and off since I was 19, volunteering in disaster relief and nutrition projects. I have met so many really wonderful people who have taught me so much. Travelling has really opened my mind.

I love going for long walks to explore places, stopping for ice coffees and snacks, and to appreciate and take pictures of graffiti art.
