About Me

Never having stayed in one place for very long as as child, I was destined to be a world traveller. I love nature, adventure , photography. You will always find me snapping away capturing the essence of each country I travel to. I fall in love with so many countries due to their people, cultures and traditions and the beautiful landscapes. My personal loves are in the arts areas - music, architecture, photography, textiles. I am a very keen advocate in natural healing and growing organic food and living sustainably. My adventurous nature has taken me trekking in Nepal and climbing a small peak in India - both countries very dear to me. have been volunteering in permaculture projects in Bali this year and farming /gardening in Italy and UK

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet likeminded people - interested in travel, learning all about each other’s cultures and traditions
That’s the whole reason we are doing this and not just reading a book or watching a documentary
I love to make my life richer by all these experiences which brings much more depth to your knowledge
That’s one of the reasons I joined Workaway to volunteer around the world and get a broader perspective on the region and the country - sharing is the best way of learning 🙂
