I'm an easy going traveller, who’s been travelling around the world for the last 3 years. For the most part I just want to 'be' in the place I'm in. I'm not a big sight-seer, I'm far more into the people and the feel of a place or city. I'm always curious about what it's like to live there and enjoy meeting locals.

A few years ago I got overwhelmed while volunteering with a charity and started to focus on how little people help. It's part of the reason I travel. I want to learn to focus on what's right with the world! To help and see the love and beauty that exists in all of us and put aside judgements.

Let's see what else might be good to know about me? I'm outgoing, creative and love animals. I'm not fussy, enjoy good conversations and love to write.

Also I’m not on here for any kind of hookups!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was surprised that while touring the US, I initially found it difficult to meet like minded folk. That is until I turned to Couchsurfing. Almost immediately I was humbled by the awesome people I encountered! Their experience, generosity and lifestyles drew me in, and taught me much. I also get to experience their city from their perspective, which is infinitely more meaningful to me.

I always prefer to meet locals versus stay on my own in a hotel. Hostels can be fun and convenient, but you meet mostly other travellers. Besides couchsurfers are the best people!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sold everything and started travelling!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd be happy to teach you yoga! And as I learnt it exclusively in India, the land of its birth, it's a slightly different style from what they practise in many parts of the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I ran a brand strategy firm in London for almost 10 years, so if any of that experience could benefit you and what you do, I'm happy to help!

If your interested I can tell you all about India! From the food, religion, culture and amazing spots to visit!
