About Me

Born in London, raised in Australia/Singapore/Hong Kong, and went to university in the US and France. Soon to be visiting London from Jan 11 - Feb 2, 2017 for some classes. Favorite foods include Italian, French, and some fabulous fish 'n chips (extra vinegar). Love salsa dancing, learning about other cultures, meditating, and laughing until I cry.

I am very clean, polite, and respectful of people and their space.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of my favorite things is to travel and meet international people. Being around people of different cultures really lights me up, energizes me. I'm inspired by where people have traveled and love swapping travel tales. (I'm also a really big help on how to travel for free using airline miles.)

Also, currently finances are a bit tight and couchsurfing seems like the perfect mix of meeting interesting people and traveling economically.

I'll be in London for three weeks to study mind/body healing, and I love meeting international people.
