My home is Newcastle in the NE of England. But travel keeps me moving!

I am passionate about conserving nature which is what inspired me to study Biology. Since then I have worked managing Vegan festivals. Inspiring others about food choices, the environment, animal rights and their health. It has turned me into a massive foodie!!!

Since graduating I set off on a 4 month solo backpacking trip around SE Asia visiting: Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and Japan! Was by far the most exhilarating 4 months of my life. I snorkelled with a puffer fish, got messy in a mud cave, spent 7 days meditating in a forest monastery, attended 2 psy-trance festivals, met a friendly gibbon, white-water rafted and love the openness of people I met on my way.

This sparked my second trip, 2 months around Europe with my younger sister! We did two of my favourite things being in places of natural beauty and dancing at festivals 💃

In Central America I climbed a volcano 🌋 volunteered with workaway in the jungle and attended an 18 day tribal festival on the Caribbean coast of Panama.

As my next challenge my sister and I are cycling 2000km from Amsterdam to Portugal. True test of soul, body and mind.

I keep fit through Karate, yoga and dancing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I live to experience and I love shareing with others. People are the richest source of happiness and opportunity.

Looking forward to sharing with you <3

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a massivly varied music taste involving Trance, Psy-trance, Dubstep, DnB, spanish/latin/portugese, ambient, Hardstyle, Carribbean... even KPOP! All about the bass in music but most of all I love to dance.

Books wise I love to read Non-fiction. Autobiographies are an amazing source of life lessons. Self-help books can shed light on how to deal with some of lifes tricky questions and there are so many enriching documentaries out there I can never get bored!

Although I am not so much a fan of popular TV I do enjoy anime eg studio ghibli, tokyo ghoul, attack on titan etc.

I think i would have to say my favourite film is Borat and favourite TV series is Rick and Morty. Both are hilarious! If you haven't watched them then you really are missing out.
