About Me

CURRENT MISSION

As of February to travel around South America!! See some absolutely amazing sights and meet lots of new people. I can't wait!

ABOUT ME

We are currently embarking on a new adventure around the world starting in South America and ending in Australia. My boyfriend and I fly out to Argentina in February from the U.K. From there we plan to see as many sights as possible before sadly flying out of Chile in June.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couch surfing is a new experience for us so you'll need to forgive any mistakes. We're still getting our heads round the etiquette! We must admit initially we're going to be more surfers than hosts to begin with but happy to return the favour in the future. Bristol is a great city and I would be more than happy to show people the sights...and bars, nightclubs...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Absolutely none. It is completely new to us! It seems like a fantastic way to really get to know a place and experience the culture and lifestyle fully. When we're back from our travels we hope to be able to offer our own couch in Bristol!

Interests

I love music, dancing, festivals, carnivals and being with fun and friendly people. Simple!
Pete loves surfing and is a pretty good cook as well!
