About Me

CURRENT MISSION

happiness is found along the way, not at the end of the road...

ABOUT ME

I'm very social, enjoy making new friends, and like having crazy adventures! Alternatively, I love simply relaxing and enjoying the company of old and new friends. Combination of everything really ! ~I'm lighthearted, but serious when necessary ! happy, very excitable....! enthusiastic some might say... the smallest things amuse me, although I like to think I'm not too simple minded...can be rather dry and sarcastic. But then am thoroughly gullible myself, (or I suppose you could just say open minded ?! very positive spin on it there... )

PHILOSOPHY

"O God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the Courage to change the things I can, and the WIsdom to know the difference" Reinhold Niebuhr

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've participated on and off over the last couple of years when circumstances have allowed! Currently living in London and am now willing to host occassionally (I have a lot of commitments with my nursing training unfortunately), and more than willing to meet and help people explore and discover London (I'm pretty new myself...!)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed in Barcelona (with my friend from home who was au pairing) was AMAZING ! met loads of people from CS, went to a language exchange social ! (which began as language exchange, then somehow just turns into a massive party!!?) Got involved in New York, had a few couchsurfers in London, and enjoyed it all!

Interests

I'm interested in anything worth debating about, current affairs, politics, art, music, film, societies, cultures,health, religion.

  • arts
  • partying
  • gardening
  • politics
  • music
  • nursing

  • language exchange

Music, Movies, and Books

New Year's Resolution: Watch more decent films. My film taste and repertoire has been embarrassingly embarrassing. Help needed and appreciated!!

Teach, Learn, Share

after nannying, I am a dab hand at child rearing, ironing and cleaning. HA.
pretty savvy with tents too, recently went to the Secret Garden Party and put up a blow up tent.

I'm sure I will develop slighly more useful skills and knowledge as the university of life progresses. Would like to learn more useful and ridiculous skills so anyone willing to teach - I'm willing to learn!

Countries I’ve Visited

Aruba, Belgium, Canada, Costa Rica, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Mexico, Morocco, Spain, Vatican City State

Countries I’ve Lived In
