I like to think I am a fairly balanced person. I like people and nature. I live for experience and I want to have a positive impact on the world and the people I meet and learn with.

I am 35 years old, I have been involved in circus, theatre and education for nearly 10 years. Professionally I teach circus and movement. Personally I practice juggling and handstands and at the moment I am traveling to the Gambia in my van, trying to live the nomadic life for a few months.

I am very interested in alternative ways of living, off-grid, eco-village, permaculture etc. I believe that community is the way forward and I hope to be able to participate/engage in community life more fully before too long.

I am learning the accordion, but I'm not too good at it yet so I tend to play for myself mostly.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm new to Couchsurfing, I want to meet people, to connect and share stories and experience, and to exchange knowledge and skills.

Of course to know friendly people in strange places, and to help people when they come to my places. It is a wonderful network.
