CURRENT MISSION

To explore new horizons.

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty laid back and love meeting new people, but I think as I get older I have less tolerance for self-centered, egotistical people. I love to travel! Almost every opportunity I get, I escape to a faraway land... though it never seems enough (I can be greedy ;)). I've been living in Nottingham for nearly 2 years now and spend most of my free time wandering or cycling round the city taking photos or joining one of the local pub quizzes. I love dinosaurs!

PHILOSOPHY

It's not about where you've been. It's about how far you've come.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surfed a bit in Germany, Poland, Spain and the UK. I also hosted and attended meetings in Santander and I sometimes attend Nottingham events and meetings.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Although I have not couchsurfed through the website I have surfed with a few different people in Berlin, who were all lovely and amazingly helpful!

Also all of the people Amanda and I hosted in Santander were lovely house guests.
