About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live a life of travel

ABOUT ME

Hello! I'm Maria, a travel addict who paused to have my babies and am now back on the wagon teaching them all I know.

I am originally from the UK and have spent time living in Copenhagen, Australia, Malta, and a few other haunts.

I love to travel to places and meet new people. I'm very social, easy going and energetic. I'm more than happy to entertain myself and am very independent but I also love hanging out with people and exploring places with a local.

My favourite thing in the world is to laugh. But I also love to cook, read, walk, listen to music, keep fit and generally anything to do with water.

Im a single mum traveling with my two excellent humans (Theo aged 1 and Maya 6)

PHILOSOPHY

experiences and love are everything

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have done lots of couchsurfing and love it! Im still good friends with lots of my lovely hosts and love everything about couhsurfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed in Australia, Paris, south east asia and the USA, I really enjoyed being immersed in local culture, meeting new people, sharing experiences and getting recommendations for what to do and see. I have always had amazing experiences couchsurfing and have met some brilliant people.

Interests

I love doing anything new, meeting new people, learning new things, having heated discussions, hiking, swimming, reading, going to museums and art galleries, and most of all traveling.

I am most interested in other people, meeting new people and learning new things is my passion. I am interested in people, culture, what makes us human, growth, fun and living life.

Most of all I love to laugh and be happy.

Music, Movies, and Books

Im pretty open to everything and like learning about new music. Currently going through an Otis Redding and Lou Reed phase.

I love reading auto biographies and non fiction, also rubbishy airport crime novels are my favourite go to when i need an easy read.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Got over my fear of flying

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn everything! There is so much to know and so little time :D

Id love to learn to surf, skateboard, speak different languages, cook. Anything! I want my children to experience to joys of the whole world.

I can teach about where I've been, about life in England, if you have a small business that needs a hand with marketing/sales I can offer that :). Performance psychology is my area of research, specifically confidence in women/neurodivergents.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Passion, curiosity and the joy of two gorgeous children who love life
