About Me

CURRENT MISSION

We've been stagnant travellers and have let our work lives take over our daily lives. We are on a mission to change that. And this is where it starts!

ABOUT ME

I love meeting new people, new experiences, new challenges. I love to entertain and play host. Pretty chilled-out and love to explore new areas.
Love music - listening, writing, playing. Published author of my travel diaries while in Taiwan. Lover of all things vintage and antique...

PHILOSOPHY

My largest joy comes through giving.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Being new to Couchsurfing, and having a beautiful home in one of the most beautiful places in the world - it's a no-brainer that we'd love to offer the opportunity for travellers to rest their weary feet and heads... and perhaps have that reciprocated! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

BRAND new Couch Surfer...

Interests

Things that grab my attention are self-taught musicians, good books that most people have forgotten about, vintage and antique markets, good food. Spend most of my time in the garden, writing / reading, playing music, visiting new villages and finding the pulse of their heartbeat.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books

Music
All things from Debussy to Annie Lennox... a bit of Tracy Chapman, U2, Fleet Foxes... depends on what mood I'm in.

Movies
All time favourites have to include Love Actually, Dumb and Dumber, Bridges of Madison County, Seven, The Shining... (see? A bit of a mixed bag...)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Our wedding day was one of the happiest of my life! A few of the live music shows I've attended as well as an African Sunset, have to be on the top list of favourite awesome memories. Phi Phi Islands, dodgy Hong Kong bar, and the Petronas Towers experience stick out in my memory.
