About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy life in the UK as much as I enjoy it abroad...(tough call I know...)

ABOUT ME

I am a big-hearted nature-loving, animal-loving, people and places loving woman. Most likely to be found outdoors chopping logs for the fire, foraging for wild mushrooms, or camping in the woods with my dog. Cool with naturism and wish our climate made it a little easier.

PHILOSOPHY

Good words, good thoughts, good deeds.
Have faith and things will turn out alright.
Treat others as you would have them treat you.
100% honesty
Aim high - don't be constrained by other people's expectations.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've coach surfed across New Zealand mainly, but not yet in the UK. I love meeting new people from different places and making friends, and I'm keen to do that here too. I have a big spare room and plenty of space to make people as welcome as I was made in New Zealand.

Interests

Trees, countryside, snorkelling, fishing, fish, sea, nature, animals, outdoors, camping, drinking decaf coffee, meeting people, helping other people. Growing vegetables, cooking, walking, pottery.

Music, Movies, and Books

Really love historical novels based on true events. Also a bit of a sucker for biographies where people overcome great odds and succeed! All sorts of music are fabulous apart from trance, banging hardcore, and thrash metal (for me anyway!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing the transformation that a cleft-lip operation can have on a child's well-being and happiness in Indonesia

Teach, Learn, Share

I could help with gardening and growing veg. Always happy to drive. Not squeamish one bit. Happy to cook.
