CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME
currently volunteering as a hostel manager in mexico city, we live in community and like to explore together and meditate together three times a week. previously worked in a hostel while living in amsterdam and really enjoyed the sense of community amongst backpackers/travellers. have been lucky enough to travel and experience this intermittently since leaving amsterdam to study nursing in the UK

PHILOSOPHY

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
being with local people is a great way to have a more fulfilling and authentic experience. so many interesting people on here!
currently living in a shared student house so hosting is difficult but possible.
*******currently travelling in mexico so can't host
i love to cook for you if you stay :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
only a couple of official couchsurfing experiences (i really enjoyed them, both hosting and surfing!) but have couchcrashed with friends-of-friends while travelling and have hosted several people also - from lithuania, austrailia, germany, USA, finland etc, we have even hosted a few bands a couple of times while they have been touring
