CURRENT MISSION

to finish unpacking from the move

ABOUT ME

My boyfriend and I have just moved to Eindhoven from London. We're into art, design and cinema, music (indie, jazz, swing) and generally like getting out and about seeing new places, trying new things; Holland is still an adventure for us...

We have two cats and a tortoise...we might start to keep bees and chickens. Viktor plays the banjo and works as a front end developer for websites and I am doing a Masters at the Design Academy.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live. Carpe diem. What goes around comes around. If the world throws you lemons make lemonade. Always look on the bright side of life (or should that be death?) ahh, I'm running out of cliches, but I think you´ve probably got the idea.-hippy, art student,liberal

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted and surfed, meet some really nice people and generally had a lot of fun.

It's a great concept, but it's even better in practise.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailing a Tall Ship from the Azores to Portsmouth across the Atlantic (Sarah)
For Viktor I reckon he'd say sea kayaking and wild camping around Scotland last year.
We want to do the Mongol Rally at some point.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to share my favourite films with people. I love cooking for people who appreciate it. I could teach you the alphabet in international sign language or instruct you through a beginners/intermediate yoga class.
