ABOUT ME

After living in Aberystwyth, Wales for 4 years I spent some time out hitchhiking and woofing, before moving to London 18 months ago. It's busy, fun, and the part of London i live in has a wonderful sense of community. However i'm already getting itchy feet so may be on the move again before long.....

I am a relaxed, thoughtful and friendly person and i love a good adventure. I like to surf, sing, grow food, practice yoga, knit, cook and laugh a lot.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am fairly new to couchsurfing, or at least new to the site. I'm hoping now I have a spare room i can start hosting people in London. I'be had lots of positive experiences and random encounters with people when travelling that have proved to me that a stranger is usually just a friend you haven't met yet.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: At the moment I am in love with Solid Air by John Martyn. I love most music and play a little guitar, i love to sing

Books:I love anything by Gabriel García Márquez or Roberto Bolaño. Hunter Thompson is one of my favorite writers, also a big fan of Chimamanda Ngozi Adiche, Jonathan Safran Foer, Martin Amis, Thomas Pynchon. There is nothing nicer than snuggling down with a big chunky novel!

Movies: I'm bad with movies, there are so many classics i haven't watched which makes people say "YOU HAVEN'T SEEN....!!!!" But i like old horror films,and (in contrast) feelgood films that make you think a bit. I generally don't like my favorite books being turned into films but fear and loathing and Inherent vice are exceptions to the rule!
