I am constantly looking to try new things, meet people and visit exciting places. My interests are varied, and I'm always up for a fun challenge!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've had excellent experiences when meeting new people and exploring many places 'as a local' - and for that reason I thought I would try Couch Surfing. So far, so good!

Interests

I'm particularly passionate about the arts and culture, especially fine art, art history and food. I am also incredibly interested in traveling and learning about different cultures, histories and languages.

It is also no secret that I love kids! I've worked with children from a few weeks old through to mid teens in both official and volunteer capacities. I've done everything from teaching English and babysitting, to running arts activities at work and being a leader at a camp with over 100 children.

My photos might give some indication as to the other things I love doing.
