I'm kauri, I've been travelling around a few years now with my young daughter, Ovi. We have spent most of our time in Europe and a bit in Mexico and Colombia. We've couch surfed a bit (through this app and some Facebook groups), but mostly done a few workaways and lately we stay in apartments, since I'm working almost full time now.

We both love music, good food, being goofy, and watching films (usually kid types films, for obvious reasons).

I love to play guitar when i can get my hands on one, but i can't promise to be very good, though i still do remember a couple songs.

Ovi loves to create, with anything and everything she can, and she's very imaginative. And inquisitive ;)

We love to hang out, but also like to have a little time to ourselves. We also love to share stories. We're personally still working on our story telling skills, so though we have some good ones, they might just come out a bit awkward xD

We look forward to meeting some future friends on here!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new friends, like minded travellers, and show my daughter the beauty and kindness that exists in a world that sometimes feels so cold and impersonal.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling the world with a small child is probably the most amazing thing I've done. Hitchhiking and camping down the coast of Albania, making friends from all walks of life.

More to come though!

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can offer some smiles, pleasant company, help tidying or cooking or whatever, a few songs if you've got a guitar. Also happy to invite our hosts to eat/drink, and sometimes i might have a bottle of something from the previous country to share ;)

Also, Ovi will surely make some kind of creations and give them as gifts <3
