About Me

Well, I believe in kindness, empathy, holding open doors and putting your phone away at dinner. If you asked my friends who I am, they would say: hilarious, thoughtful, kind, humble, adventurous, genuine, responsible and yes, a little feisty.

I absolutely love sports and am happiest when I’m outside making myself tired.

I don’t believe in astrology, but I’m a Gemini, whatever that means.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m an outgoing lady who loves nightlife, weekend adventures, hiking, karaoke, getting out on the seashore, and meeting new people.

Music, Movies, and Books

The first book I ever cried at was Gone with the Wind. It’s all been downhill from there. My favourite books all evoke some emotion in me. If you have any book recommendations, send them my way. I’m a voracious reader and love talking books. I am currently living in Oman, which I love as my second home.

My favourite movies are The Memento, The Others, A Beautiful Mind, Inception, The Green Mile, Seven Samurai, and Perfume: The Story of a Murderer. I hope that a wide range of movies allows you to see that there is more to me than meets the eye.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did lots of amazing unforgettable things in my life but the best was when
I travelled to Kishangra, India alone and I drove to Ajmer for 10 hours to see Taj Mahal.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m an assistant professor at university, and I absolutely love my job and my students. I have employed my big heart in my role as a teacher and created a world of love and compassion around me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live for the moments you can’t put into words, and few things transcend a cup of coffee and someone to share it with.
