Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
to support Lanta Animal Welfare, Koh Lanta, Thailand.
ABOUT ME
I am a retired PE teacher from London having taught in schools and colleges for many years.
I have 2 children, and several pets.
I played netball 3 times a week and helped run our large club which has 5 teams.
I am passionate about animals and volunteer with animal rescue in Thailand.
I now live permanently on Koh Lanta near Krabi in Thailand.
I do not have space in my current home for couch surfers, but we have very cheap accommodation at our animal rescue centre in exchange for half a days help.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN THE
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I try and get help for our wonderful animal rescue centre on the beautiful Island of Koh lanta. We are now number 3 of 'best things to do in Thailand' on Tripadvisor.
Our happy welfare centre sterilises and cares for sick animals and is growing due to popular demand. If you are travelling and miss your pets or like helping animals, this is the perfect place to stay for 1/2/3 months
At Lanta Animal Welfare we offer accommodation and amazing friendships; animals and human! in exchange for half a day.s help with feeding, exercise and cleaning. You will love it!
