I love travel, have been on the road each year since 2007. I enjoy meeting new people and exploring places, not just the tourist spots. I do know the tourist spots can be good too. I live on a remote island in Scotland called Iona - I love the both of the extremes of the quiet life and the franctic beat of the city. My top countries so far are Colombia, Mexico, Laos and Chile. In October I will commence my annual adventure - this year I am headed to Norway, Lebanon, Thailand before a stint visiting family in Australia. I want to couchsurf more - this is one of the things I plan to check off my list! Check out some of my travels on my instagram - @kimbertrippin 😎

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to connect with likeminded people around the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am at 55 countries.... I tend to go back to places a lot so this feels like a victory to me!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share travel tales..I have very basic Spanish and I would love to learn more (or any other language for that matter!). I can teach English.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Positivity, fantastic travel stories and a good laugh. I am very open-minded and want to learn about the lives of others too.
