Overview
About Me
Hello, after working in healthcare (Podiatrist) and Law for for almost 10 years we decided to quit out jobs in London, UK to travel around South America!
I love animals and people, art and nature, cooking but mainly eating and exploring new places and experiencing and learning about different ways of life, cultures and people!
I have been getting into Yoga the past year or two but this has taken a back seat whilst travelling so I would like to be able to continue this again.
James likes to read and learn about the histories and cultures of the countries we visit. He started retraining as a chef before we left the UK so is really interested in food and learning about native and local goods and how to cook them!
He can speak the 4 languages listed below, not me! But I am trying to learn Spanish!
we both really like hiking and skiing.
I would love to learn how to horseride and to Tango!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To have a more authentic experience with people in the country that i am in and to learn more about the culture and to meet some new people!
