Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Hey fellow couchsurfers! I'll be travelling to Maui on 24th April for 5 days. I’ve already got accomodation sorted so I’m looking to meet locals as I’m travelling solo.
Being a couch Surfing host almost feels like I'm traveling without leaving the comfort of my own home. But mostly I love making new friends and giving those new friends a great travel experience.
I've done more hosting than surfing so it will be great to experience it from the other side.
ABOUT ME
I am a very active person that loves the outdoors. I'm always educating myself on topics that interest me such as Anthropology, cosmology, sociology, mindfulness and physical science....
My fun side loves a night out on the dance floor or a music festival.
I love to mix cocktails and cook for people so u could say I have a very hospitable nature.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I use to live in a lovely victorian style 50's decorated house in London. So it's been a pleasure to share it by hosting couch surfers.
From couchsurfing I have received such generosity and good times from my hosts. What goes around definitely comes around!!!
I'm really looking forward to meeting more people that are willing to open their homes to other travellers. It definitely takes a special person to do so.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've made so many new friends and met so many different personalities. There is always a new story to share with my friends and family about my couchsurfing experiences.
Couchsurfing events and meetings are always great fun too!
Interests
General health and fitness. Outdoor activities such as rock climbing, yoga, surfing and diving. I´m always keen for a dance.
I love to cook different cuisines from all around the world.
I have recently started training in mixed martial arts. I love learning new movement techniques from handstands, kicks to yoga poses.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Started teaching English at a school in Spain where I didn't speak any Spanish and the children didn't speak any English. Challenge to say the least.
Teach, Learn, Share
I think it is very important to be an attentive listener. To be interesting, be interested. Ask questions that the other person will enjoy answering. Everyone has their own fascinating stories to tell.
I can teach people how to do handstands... You know the important things in life haha.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Good food, good company and plenty of laughs.
