About Me

I like to be in new places, be emerged in different cultures, and most of all, to meet new people. I teach yoga, play flute, meditate, read. I'm passionate about food and natural plant medicines and remedies.

I am open-minded, inquisitive, thoughtful and sincere. I am easy-going and hard to offend, yet I am principled and stand up for my beliefs.
I love to laugh and am drawn to humorous, comical types; people who have an intelligent view of the world, but don't take it all too seriously.
For me, debating around a dinner table, discussions on a walk, or talking over a drink in a bar or pub, are all favorite past times.
I've recently started writing a blog, I like to take pictures, go walking, swim in the ocean, be happy.

I believe that one should always treat others as you would wish to be treated.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting and Surfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have my own home in England and have had many lodgers and friends come to stay with me over the years. I look forward to being able to meet new people through couch surfing, opening my home and my world to them.
I have had only a couple of couch surfing experiences so far (which have both been excellent), but have travelled extensively and am always meeting local people and staying with them in their homes.

Interests

I love cities: architecture, art, music and underground scenes.
I am at home in the great outdoors: I am a big hiker (volcanos, mountains, fields and forests), love to camp, swim, boat and surf (well...try to).
I'm a good cook and am a food enthusiast. I don't eat meat but love fish and food from around the world.
I have eclectic tastes in music, art, theatre and cinematography- I'm open minded and love discovering other people's passions.
