About Me

Shifted to Bombay in 2021 with my son. I'm a single parent and a writer. Trying to step out of the constant hustle and find myself a moment of calm. Doing it pretty well too.

ABOUT ME

Well if you asked my best friends they would say I'm crazy, fun, stupid, intelligent and 100% there for you! I, however like to think I'm a bit quiet and have many layers but I'm sure you'd love to get to know me :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd love to meet travellers from around the world. I'd like to host as often as possible and would definitely surf while travelling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been a member since 2007 but my ex-husband got custody of the profile in our divorce. I got my son, so it worked out ok. Starting afresh here.

Interests

I love traveling and planning to travel. I'm a compulsive foodie who loves eating and cooking. I can watch 7 movies in a row ranging from rom-coms to fantasy. Give me a book and I'm your friend for life. I love my drinks and on occasion don't mind a bit more than that. I can finally do a headstand and am discovering myself in a whole new way in my 40's

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing my son grow up. It's been quite an adventure. Shifting to a new city, building a new life and home for both of us. Life in itself with all its twists and turns is pretty damned amazing
