About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To have a great story to tell

ABOUT ME

British girl in San Francisco for the year. Studying at King's College London but currently on my year abroad for a 12 month internship at Novartis in the bay area.

Making the most of my time here in California and managed to squeeze in some trips since I moved here 9 months ago. Met some awesome people through couch surfing, travelled to New Orleans, Los Angeles, Yosemite, Coachella and Lake Tahoe so far and have trips planned to Seattle, Vegas, New York, Boston and Washington DC before I leave in a few months time.

Pretty much your stereotypical typical Brit, I love tea and crumpets. Oh and I seriously miss Cadburys chocolate! Moving to California has been a life changing experience and I don't want this adventure to ever end!

PHILOSOPHY

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am relatively new to CS, only joining last year when I moved to California. I have made several really good friends through couch surfing and hosted a few at my apartment in San Francisco. I will be sure to return the favour with hosting people when I return to London!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Amazing! I think CS if a great idea. I have met some amazing people and every experience I have had on CS has been good so far. It's amazing how people on here are so hospitable and kind to share their homes.

Interests

I love travelling and visiting new places therefore having the opportunity to live in California for a whole year has been incredible. I love photography and you will rarely see me without my SLR snapping away.

Chilling on a beach, tanning, with a good book is perfection for me and I recently took up surfing in California, which has been pretty awesome.

I'm also a big fan of live music and festivals, just recently got back from Coachella, which was one of the best weekends of my life!
