About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to truly experience the world and the people, culture, sights and food it has to offer!

ABOUT ME

Hello!

I've just moved to Glasgow after spending a year living and working in New Zealand which I loved! Now trying to settle back into 'normal' life until I can save up enough to head off again :)

PHILOSOPHY

Experience as much as you can and value that opportunity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love to meet new people I am always up for coffee, drinks, any food based meetings, gigs, events, travel adventures and pretty much anything else! If you are looking for somewhere to stay in Glasgow or just someone to show you round let me know.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met up with a few folk for coffees and drinks when I was away which was great, especially as I was staying in the city for a while.

Interests

I love travelling, food (eating, cooking, buying..looking at hungrily! ), film, music, art, meeting new people, chilling out with friends, theatre, comedy, walking, getting off the beaten track and finding the hidden gems..

Music, Movies, and Books

I studied film so I'm a wee bit of a film geek. Pretty varied taste so I'm up watching anything and everything (except maybe The Notebook which I seem to hate with a passion!) I studied a lot of Scottish films so if you want to known depressing but excellent films made in the rain then I'm your girl! :)

Music wise its a bit all over the place - from Scottish indie bands like Frightened Rabbit and Twilight Sad, to a bit of electro with Holy Other, Baths etc, to a bit of blues, jazz brass filled goodness such as Hyptonic Brass Ensemble who are immense and everyone should listen to!!

Books - trying to work my way through some of 'the classics' this year as I have hardly read any meaning that my backpack is largely filled with very sandy copies of books I don't quite understand!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my knowledge of quite-depressing-but-really-good Scottish films, my stories of various travelling escapades, my huge love of cooking and eating tasty food, and hopefully some good conversation and cheery company!

I don't have any very exciting skills I can teach (except for playing guitar and trombone quite badly!) But I'm always up for learning new things, new stories, new skills and about new cultures so teach me please!!

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, New Zealand, Poland, Slovenia, Spain, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In
