Hey I'm Sophie :)

I lived and travelled abroad for over 5 years, but I have been living in the UK again for the past 4 years.

Currently in: Bristol, UK

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's way more personal and insightful to stay with a local to get to know a place.
I love that CS is an alternative way of meeting people, sharing their home and (when I can) sharing mine.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To learn to love and accept myself fully (although this is a daily practice not something I'd say you can tangibly "complete").

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach vegetarian cooking, Ayurvedic medicine, and growing organic food (the No Dig way). You can also practise your English with me :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm no longer living in a house with space to host, but when I do again my door will be open :)
