I've lived and worked in Zimbabwe , Zambia, South Africa , UK and Italy. I love to travel! I am creative, love good food and experiencing new cultures. Growing up in the wide open spaces of Southern Zambia was the best ever- lifelong friendships and bonds were formed. I would not change it for the world.
Fun stuff includes hiking, yoga classes, exploring, fabulous cookfests and of course laughter and enjoyment of getting together to eat in cool places!
I do Interior Design, but that's just the start of the conversation...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What a great way to meet new people, have great conversations and make new friends from around the world. The more we connect in this crazy world, the more we can learn about eachother -by sharing we learn more about giving, compassion, simplifying life and experiencing the freedoms to just be who we are-

Not forgetting directors who's work I love: Quentin Tarantino, Marin Scorsese, Guy Richie.
Favorite Books: "Five Quarters of the Orange" by Joanne Harris, "Shantaram" by Gregory David Roberts, "The Book Thief" by Markus Zuzak. "Becoming" by Michelle Obama, "Why people don't heal and how they can" and "The Creation of Health", by Caroline Myss

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Took a trip around Hyderabad by Tuktuk on my own...without a map! Had a commercial flight return to pick me up an hour after take off in Africa... Camped in the total wilderness of the Kafue plains where lions walked past our (lone) tent ...
