About Me

Ban boredom, ditch dullness, experience everything.

I'm a digital nomad, running my own business and travelling as I do it, looking to meet as many awesome people and have as many incredible experiences as possible.

Driven, committed, confident, apparently lacking attention to detail.. I'm pretty motivated and generally have a few things going on and in the pipe line!

I like people, cooking, learning, experiencing, living and doing stupid things.

Do unto others as done unto you, live life to the fullest and never be afraid to take a chance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I was in the UK I was on Couchsurfing looking to host people. Now I'm 100% nomadic, travelling and working as I go and Couchsurfing is the best way to actually meet locals and feel the real place.

Interests

I try to have as much fun as possible, in England fire dancing was my main passion but I have spent the past 8 months training in Muay Thai and scuba diving. I enjoy physical things and want to learn more Salsa dancing.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like picture books of far off places, cookery books with interesting recipes and most novels with a bit of adventure and excitement to them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Passed my driving test, then 1 month later leaving Goodwood, UK, to do the Mongol rally, taking 6 weeks to drive across Europe and Central Asia, arriving in Ulaanbaatar and crossing the finishing line, only to be run over and head off to the Mongolian A&E 5 minutes later .. :D

Teach, Learn, Share

Being native I have a fantastic grasp of the English language, and being from Pompey I have a penchant for profanity! Lacking a deep fat fryer I can't teach how to cook the national dish of fish and chips but I can trick swap with poi and involve you in the local spinning community if the weather isn't too horrific!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm good at cooking, if you are in to circus arts I can teach poi and some staff. I love tarot reading too and need all the practice I can get!
