About Me

Journalist working at a magazine about whales. I've moved into a new 2-bedroom recently with a beautiful view of the gorge, and I'd love to share the space with kindred spirits.

I've spent much of 2014/15 living in South America and returned to do some research in plastic surgery for my masters thesis. I've also previously went on exchange in Cape Town and spent part of my childhood in Saudi Arabia. Spent chunks of time in Toronto, NYC, and Beijing as well.

These days I find myself with less free time, but do fantasize about the little vacation I get.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting interesting people from around the world! I've had great experiences staying with others and hope to be able to return the hospitality.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've discovered such thing as pumpkin spice cheerios and pumpkin spice eggnog, and I plan on having the two simultaneously.
