About Me

Hey all!,
At the moment I am very sorry but I am unable to host as I am back living with my parents but as soon as I have my own place I will be able to host again!

I'm a down to earth nomad at heart who loves being creative, travelling and cups of tea!
I have recently come back from travelling in India, South East Asia and teaching and living in Vietnam.
Currently I am back in Northumberland, England, trying to set up a theatre company and get my brain creative again.
I love cooking, creating, writing and photography. Enjoy performances and movies, having fun, dancing and learning all there is to learn about the world and the people in it. I have made it my mission to learn as many languages as possible although at the moment it is basics in most European languages and Hello in most others! haha but I'm trying!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My idea of travelling isn't crossing the Earth to find my nearest western food chain or Starbucks, it is to really travel, learn and feel immersed into the diverse amazing cultures that fill the world. Couch surfing seems like the best way to meet people from all over the world, learning their culture and hear their stories. At the moment I can't host due to living arrangements but I can't wait to be able to in the future. For now if you are in London contact me and I'll be happy to meet/help in any way I can.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I love music from all over the world ranging from classical to rock. Reggae, punk, acoustic, 60's rock n roll, 80's glam rock, world music. Anything that has been created artfully or that you can dance to and not just a re-hash for money making.

Movies: Lord of the rings, Hook, Good will Hunting, love a good bollywood film!

Books: The Hobbit, Game of Thrones Series, Eat pray love,

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Slept in a desert in the jaiselmer desert under many stars.
Taught English to Tibetan monks in Dharamsala and children in Vietnam
Taught myself to ride a motorbike in Vietnam and road tripped across the north staying with villagers.
Danced and sang along an empty desert island beach in Cambodia with the bestest people under the milk way and stepping in photoplankton.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to share any stories I create or come across on my journey and share some amazing experiences with everyone I meet along the way. I have a TEFL certificate in teaching English as well so will be happy to help with language learning on my way or if there is any thing you need I will try and help in any way I can.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share some great laughs, stories and friendships. I am open to learning many new cultures, languages and experiences and really getting stuck into other ways of life. If there is anything I can do along the way to help I will be more than happy to do so. I love to cook and am very clean. I look forward to meeting as many people as possible on my journey and will return the favour to others when I am able to.
