ABOUT ME

I'm really not a fan of these profiles, but some info about me;

Career: I am a nurse, working shifts in a neuro ward. A big part of my life and identity, I couldn't imagine working anywhere other than health care.

Food: Huge foodie, eating, and cooking. I've been vegetarian for more than half my life, but I love to try local when travelling wherever this is possible.

Free time: Mostly hiking, walking, and admiring the beauty that is our natural world. Also, a keen dancer, primarily SBK although also dabbled in Latin and Ballroom, but I don't get to practice much. Did aerial Silks for a while, very fun, but now very rusty.

I've had a few experiences on CS and met some amazing people from different cultures and backgrounds. Love being able to connect and challenge my own world views.

Alternatively, if short on time, can't beat a friendly conversation or debate over a good coffee or walk.

I am currently travelling, so I am not available to host. Hopefully, once I'm settled in one location for a while, I'll be able to accept guests again.

Do not send me a friend request unless we have actually hung out, I will not accept.

CS is not a dating site. If that's what you are looking for then please do not offer to host me or meet up, otherwise you will be disappointed.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a bit of a mixture of music, between rock, classical, acoustic, theatre, latin.

Films - I don't do anything remotely scary.

I mainly read true stories, particular favourites are books by Torey Hayden.
