I started backpacking with my mom and my grandma at the age of 5 with my sisters. They had a lot of balls taking 3 kids under 10 (my sisters and I)inter railing around Europe for 6 weeks every summer, roughing it on trains and arriving in places with no accommodation plans and just seeing where we could get a room for the cheapest. I remember one night we ended up in a cold war-esque tower block on the outskirts of Budapest!

After seeing most of Europe i set my sights further. I flew to Ghana at 18 and spent the next 2 years living, travelling, working, volunteering in Africa, South America and South Asia. I settled down in London to study a degree but had to keep on moving. I worked as a cocktail bartender every weekend during my studies so save for more adventures. After my second year I circumnavigating the globe for the second time during my summer vacation. Hitting Japan, China, Indo, Aus, LA finishing with a month in Colombia. In between these long trips I travelled for short breaks to Morocco, Malta, Tunisia and the Gambia on cheap package deals. After my second year I travelled through central America, south africa and eastern europe. After my final year I backpacked through the Middle East and travelled through Africa with my Mom and sister. I travel as much as I can and its quite an addiction!

I love wandering, I'm a free spirit that acts too impulsively at most times (something I'm working on). although this get up and go without thinking attitude has lead me to the most wonderful places. I really am an anything type of person, i love nature and could be happy stuck by myself in the middle of nowhere but also love people and cities.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Originally joined to get advice from couch surfers in Sierra Leone and Cameroon to advise me on weather conditions in the summer so now set up a profile and can't wait to start couch surfing, as when i do have a home where ever it will be, i will reciprocate.
