CURRENT MISSION

To show people the best city in the world, learn from others and have fun!

ABOUT ME

I'm rapidly approaching middle age, single for the first time in years and have realised that I should really start living for myself. I have a passion for photography and travel but sometimes too shy to take full advantage of whatever talent I have. I enjoy meeting people from all over the world in my work and would like to extend that to showing them London and the South of England.

PHILOSOPHY

Welcome strangers as you would friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had no experiences yet, looking to go to Iran at the end of the year, so hopefully will start then.

Music, Movies, and Books

The Railway Children is my favourite movie, still makes me cry (quietly). A book called Fireproof was one of the best I've read and I'll listen to all music at least once, still have a soft spot for Blondie and Stiff Little Fingers

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watched my sisters nurse my mum through cancer. She died knowing she was loved, had made a difference to many people's lives and raised three great people to take her passion on for another generation. That wouldn't have been possible without my sisters' dedication to her.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach photography in a straightforward manner, I enjoy passing on Photoshop tips and ideas. I would like to learn French properly to improve my woeful attempts to speak the language.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Austria, France, Greece, Japan, Malta, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, United States, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In

New Zealand, United Kingdom
