ABOUT ME

I'm 47, young at heart and after a couple of years abroad I'm back in England and working again with children. I have 2 very lovely grown up kids who are a big part of my life. I enjoy the culture of cities sometimes but probably most at home in nature.

PHILOSOPHY

always hard to sum up but gratitude and celebration and responsibility come high on my list, and remembering that we're all connected

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I joined couchsurfing when I was travelling in America, it was a great way to really make connection with people as well as getting a taste of local life. I found out about it from some American girls I met in India. I house share with 2 lovely people, Sarah and Jamie and we have a small, rather cluttered spare bedroom with a single bed. We're all pretty busy but happy to host when it fits in with our plans or to have you drop by for a cup of tea and a chat.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Love it - I've met some amazing people this way!

I'm interested in sustainable living, nature, good food, equality, human rights, co-operation above competition. I enjoy walking and camping and swimming, music and films. I like working with my hands, cooking, making fires, playing with clay.
