About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Educate myself in all things marinebiology, marine sciences etc.

ABOUT ME

Have done a little bit of everything in my life, from waitress to horse trainer to windsurf instructor to working with refugees. I'm not one to say no to a new experience, an attitude which have taken me on some quite interesting journeys.

I am an ocean fanatic, I am a certified Rescue Diver and I'd love to work with scientific diving and marine conservation in the future.

PHILOSOPHY

People need to chill the f*ck out :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can give tours and all the information you need if you ever visit Rhodes Island in Greece. Unfortunately my living arrangements have never been such that I could host any guest.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since I'm always moving around I haven't been able to offer a couch to someone yet, something I hope I can do later in the future!

Unfortunately the only surfing experience I have is a bad one. I was supposed to surf at a guys place for one night, I arrived in the city called him on the number he had given me, he didn't pick up, didn't call back so I had to find somewhere to stay last minute. I hope to have better experiences in the future.
