About Me

I'm a writer and journalist from the UK. I like exploring, meeting new people, having adventures and attempting to soak up culture. I dislike judgemental people and underripe bananas.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have surfed in Paris, The Netherlands and Berlin, and have hosted at my old house in Bristol. It has been amazing meeting people whose paths I would never otherwise have crossed, and a wonderful exercise in trusting in the kindness of strangers.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite writer ever is Vladimir Nabokov... I also read a lot about politics, especially feminism.

As for music I love hip hop, pretty much everything electronic, 70s and 80s punk and rock. I love the films of Pedro Almodovar and David Lynch, plus I enjoy a good documentary.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was seven-years-old I decided I wanted to be a writer and now I am one, which I think is pretty cool.

Teach, Learn, Share

As much as possible!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to spend time with my hosts if possible, cook them food (I'm a pretty good cook I promise) or have a night out together, exchanging stories and learning more about their city.
