ABOUT ME

Maria - Chatterbox with a penchant for coffeee and cake. I have managed an art gallery in Norwich and was part of a local art collective. I had a mobile dog grooming business but sold it to go on our travels.

PHILOSOPHY

If you believe in something then follow it up with actions

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have had a lots of people surf with us which has been great, all interesting experiences and we hope to host many more. In the next few months it's going to be a bit more difficult for us to host but feel free to still ask.

Had a really enjoyable first surfing experience staying in Cape Town during our visit to South Africa.

Please note we do not 'friend' anyone who we haven't met in person.
