ABOUT ME

I'm an Anthropology graduate, originally from the highlands of Scotland. I love to travel, knit, read, and swim in rivers...

PHILOSOPHY

No beliefs, just a few ideas.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed in Germany and France but haven't ever hosted (yet!). I shared a travel buddies couchsurfing profile before so I don't have references!!!

Interests

Knitting, reading, dancing and listening to music (all types but mainly old folky stuff). I love to meet new people and explore new places. My passion is teaching children arts and crafts.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love lots of different types of music but my favourites are old folksters like Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, and Fairport Convention. I love a good sing along by the fire with a glass of wine and good company! I like culty feel good movies like Harold and Maude and I love Huckabees. I'm a bookworm and read everything, my favourite authors at the moment are David Mitchell and Michael Faber.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Snorkelling in the Whitsunday Islands in Australia. Skydiving and seeing beautiful fireflies in Nepal, visiting Myanmar exploring the many temples of Bagan. Vipassana retreat in Nepal. Boom festival in Portugal and Connection festival in Spain!
