CURRENT MISSION

Live, laugh, love....and to take life less seriously

ABOUT ME

I'm from Scotland and moved to Oslo, Norway in 2007. I've also lived in Adelaide, South Australia. I'm a researcher with a background in psychology.
I can be quiet at times, outgoing other times but I'm always friendly and open to meeting new people :)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting, surfing or for meeting locals / other tourists in the places I visit.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I think it is a fabulous, friendly community. I've met some wonderful people. I hosted at first and during my time in Australia I surfed a few times which was a fantastic experience. I've also used CS for meeting people to travel with, or to meet up with in a city when travelling alone. It's also great for finding out about what events are going on.

兴趣

Traveling, experiencing new cultures, food and people. Socialising with friends, keeping active - hill walking, running, skiing, cycling, gym... Reading, films, music, concerts.

音乐、电影和书籍

I love rock / indie music and going to concerts.
Books - I love all sorts - books about traveling, different cultures, crimes, psychological thrillers, and trashy novels for reading on holiday.
Films - I like thrillers, comedies that are actually funny and I'm partial to the odd cheesy Bollywood film. Not a fan of sci-fi and fantasy. Action films with no story line are also a no no.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

This is a hard question... there are so many amazing things to pick one. A few highlights might be:
Watching the stars from a tiny island in the middle of Lake Nicaragua. Nature has a way of making us feel insignificant.
Driving a snow scooter round Svalbard and experiencing the peacefulness in the white mountains - not sure if it was lucky or unlucky that I didn't see a polar bear though!
The beautiful, white, sandy and private beaches in the Philippines.
Watching lots of beautiful sunsets in Australia
