About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Keep moving, learning and growing

ABOUT ME

Music, travel, writing, friends, partying, chilling.....I'm happiest doing some or all of these :)

I love the feeling of having nothing to worry about but the bag on your back and finding a bed for the night.

My passion is music journalism and its something I strive to pursue till I achieve all I want to achieve.

I love chilling with my friends, somewhere cosy with a nice beer and put the world to rights till the wee small hours of the morning.

PHILOSOPHY

Simple - Treat others as you wish to be treated.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

To be quite honest AT FIRST I saw couchsurfing as something fun to do that would stretch my student travel budget. I had no idea that huge impact it would have on me and my travels. I fell in love with the concept due to amazingly kind hosts that I had. Can't wait to be able to host myself when I move out of student world (I currently share a flat with 6 others so it would be unfeasable to host) and look forward to hosting when I get my own place.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Awesome, trusting, generous, surprising people :)

Interests

Dancing, scuba diving, reading, gigs and festivals, travelling, being snap-happy while travelling, drinking tea, lots of tea, cathing up with old friends, meeting new ones, peanut butter, fireworks, sleeping outside, eating, radio 1, road trips, Shampoo, waking up on the beach, sitting in trees, staying up late, couchsurfing, dreaming about places I want to go, not wearing shoes, Lucas from One Tree Hill, sharks, muddy toes, interviewing bands and feeling like a rockstar, wearing pajamas all day, drunken deep and meaningfuls, inside jokes, hugs, text messages, house parties, accents, camping, being mumsy and proud of my housemates, dancing with my friends in a larger and more embarrasing way than the people around us, indo-pacific tropical fish, cheese, chips and cheese, horror movies, sunflowers, getting a suntan, hot water bottles...
