ABOUT ME

I have been living abroad on-and-off since 2008. First to Finland, then Ecuador, and now currently in the UK. I love sharing new experiences with others and connecting the world through friendship.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started couchsurfing in 2013 after multiple suggestions from friends. I was shocked at how friendly and welcoming the world can be. When you meet so many new people, you introduce yourself to new perspectives, life experiences and sense of humours!

I'm so grateful for the people who have hosted me and those who have visited me.

Interests

Hiking in the Peak District, watching sci-fi movies, painting, cooking large vegetarian meals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watched the sunset while sitting on a snowy mountain peak above the Arctic Circle.

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy cooking and love learning new local recipes. We can cook together or if all else fails we can play some card games or try our luck at multilingual 'Scrabble'. :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm easy going and self-sufficient, but I love to spend time with hosts when they are available.

Usually when I couchsurf it is for conferences or other events that can take up most of the day, but I enjoy being able to know that I will have a chance to spend time with my host when we are both free.
