CURRENT MISSION

Going to the Real Farming Conference in Oxford, to be inspired by the changes for the better happening in our food system.

ABOUT ME

I am a gardener, I especially like growing fruit trees, but at the moment I am getting by, by working in other peoples gardens in London. I like the plants but its also a great way to work with other people, and to be outside as much possible. Living in london can sometimes seem mentally challenging after two years living amongst the mountains, beaches and rivers of West Wales. But I have lots of City in me too, London is brimming full with amazing things to do. and I love it in many ways. It is always good to get away sometimes and see the stars at night though.

PHILOSOPHY

See things from every angle and look for the complexity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I joined the CS a number of years ago, but still not made good use of it. Often too last minute in my planning and often living in shared houses with little spare space, so unfortunately never got around to hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I often squeeze in Friends (and friend of friends) when they need a bed for the night, not through CS though, but hopefully that counts for something:)
