Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
It's the summer holidays and this might be my last solo trip for a while. I'm going to visit relatives in Los Angeles and then I plan to travel up the coast to Seattle. I've never Couchsurfed before but I've always wanted to, so it would be amazing if I could surf some couches this trip.
ABOUT ME
I'm a student occupational therapist, based in London. I live in a big Victorian house with my boyfriend and five friends.
In the past I worked in Hanoi, Vietnam and Cuenca, Ecuador as an English teacher. I also worked as a teaching assistant and support worker in the UK.
People describe me as nice/kind/caring, all those fluffy things. I'm more goofy than cool but I'm also sociable and open-minded. For those who are interested in personality types (I am!), I'm a pretty balanced INFP.
P.s. It's so hard to write these things.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
People who have visited me in London or while I lived abroad have always said that this was a highlight of their trip, so I know it makes a huge difference when you know someone in the area.
I 'd like to meet people who would be up for hanging out over dinner or a few beers (both on me) and telling me about themselves and life in their city. I don't expect you to show me around but if you have the time, I'd love the company.
