Based on the South Coast of the UK. I'm afraid I can't host but more than willing to meet up and meet others in the area!

I am a travel blogger (TheHostelGirl.com) who can't sit still and talks a lot. I have a really big smile because I look really silly when I try to smile with my mouth closed, and I also want people to feel comfortable around me!

As I am on the move a lot I haven't had a chance to host yet, but if I can ever keep my feet still for more than a month or two I will be sure to return the favour!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel via hostels for work, but the more I make friends in new cities the more I realise the benefits CS can offer... and want to make more friends in even more cities!

Most of all I love to find out little secrets about a destination that you won't see in a guidebook. Your favourite bartender in town, or your favourite hike could be mine too!

Interests

My main interest is to be on the road as much as possible! But I also really like Eastern European history, Gothic architecture, English literature, country music (sorry!), the ocean, and caves!

I absolutely love Europe. Coming from the UK I've always counted myself lucky that we have such a wealth of cultures, languages, and histories side by side in one little continent. I fully intend to abuse this as much as possible and get to know all the little ins and outs that Europe has to offer!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ask me in person when we meet!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach - I am more than happy to help with English language practice! I also work in brand management, content creation and SEO so if you need website help let me know!

Learn - I really, really could do with learning to cook!

Share - Passions! I am huge for conversation and sharing tips and tricks on travel, music, language, history, food! I also specialise in hostel travel so if you want a break from CS and need to know about some great hostels I can find them for you ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am not the best cook, but if you like salmon or chickpeas I have a few recipes up my sleeves!

I also really like to learn more about the people and cultures I meet, so I can be a great listener and conversationalist!
