About Me

I love meeting people, after nine months travelling I find myself tiring of certain things but good conversations and sharing stories is something I will always have energy for.

Learning languages is my main qualification and my biggest area of interest, I also love music (play piano and bass guitar and enjoy singing)

I like cooking and eating, I have experience in carpentry too and I'm happy to help out and share my skills with you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It feels like a great way to meet interesting people, to better integrate into a new space and I'd like to host couch-surfers myself one day.

Interests

I studied languages and love learning more and applying them in the real world. My background is mixed race - me and both my parents were born in London, UK but my grandparents come from India, Switzerland, Nigeria and England.

I am very open minded, ideally want to travel by spending extended periods of time in places to better get to know them. I now do tutoring work online but I used to work in supporting adults with mental ill health and learning disabilities into employment.

I am passionate about integration through community engagement and social prescribing! I also love gardening, woodwork and a lot of practical outdoors work.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw the three Anapurna peaks in Nepal on a rare clear night under a full moon that lit them up as if it were daytime.
