CURRENT MISSION

Have a lovely time traveling South America

ABOUT ME

Well after quite a spell absent from CS I'm returning....

I'm 26, live in York, North Yorkshire with my boyfriend Rich. I'm a junior doctor, he's an Art teacher.

For the last couple of years I've been super busy getting into working life but now, from August we are both taking a sabbatical to see a little of the world!

My plan is first travel around South America and then volunteer in Uganda.

I'm friendly, enthusiastic, keen to try new things, considerate and polite.

PHILOSOPHY

Say "yes!"- you rarely regret it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I've only surfed rather than hosted.

People I've surfed with....
Charlie URRUTIAGUER France
Gus & Co Switzerland
Pas in Sao Paulo

I hope if I can convince my boyfriend CS is safe and good fun, he'll let us host! I miss the vitality of meeting travellers!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My friend recommeneded it as a great way to experience a new place with the eyes of a local- Better than staying in hotels and only experiencing the tourist side of things.
So far have only stayed with Gus and Co in Geneva- they were awesome! what an intro to CS!!
I stayed with Charlie in the south of France too- so much fun.
