My name is Lucy and I'm currently travelling with my partner, Nick. We have both just left our jobs working as a doctor and musician to spend a year travelling around South America.

Both of us speak English but have been learning Spanish and would love any opportunities for language exchange.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd like to use Couchsurfing as a means of meeting new people and travelling to new places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
It has been a long time since I have used couchsurfing as a way of travelling, but I previously hosted couch surfers when living with a flatmate in Glasgow and thoroughly enjoyed showing them the city.

I have also couch surfed when travelling in the USA several years ago.

Both hosting and surfing have only ever been positive experiences for me.

Interests

We are both very sociable and love to meet new people, learn about the music, art and politics of places we visit and to explore nature.

• traveling
• socializing
• music
• outdoor activities
• swimming
• piano playing

Music, Movies, and Books

We are both avid readers, I will be looking for reading material while I travel so if anybody is interested in swapping books or pointing me in the direction of a local bookshop, it would be appreciated.

Nick is a piano player and fiddler, specialising in classical and Scottish folk music, but we both love live music of all sorts and are hoping to see as much as we can while we travel.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We have kayaked and camped around the Norwegian fjords!

Teach, Learn, Share

We are very keen to learn about different communities, language and culture.

Nick is a composer and musician from Scotland and we'd love to share in learning about music and making music with people we meet.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cultural exchange, we'd love to cook you dinner!
