I'm an enthusiastic dancer, painter, musician, and lover of the arts. I currently work in early-stage startup formation with a strong climate focus. I care deeply about community, art, music and inter-human connection and would be enthusiastic about doing any of the following with you:
• Playing music, making art, dancing or co-creating in any way (also happy to teach!)
• Creating space for deep conversations and personal connection
• Communal living, shared food, cooking for each other

Covid-19 safety:

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting people and traveling in alternative ways. Since getting my own place in London, I've started to host, and I'm also planning a few big trips this year:

- 2 weeks of traveling in August around Eastern Europe
- 1 month of traveling around Central America in December 2022/January 2023

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I used to wake up at 6am every morning in China to go do T'ai Chi in the parks with a group of local old ladies. It's an incredible practice and probably the origin of my interest in dance and meditation.
