ABOUT ME

I love exploring new places, and sharing familiar, old ones with other people.
I love being outdoors, going on long walks, and foraging for wild mushrooms.
I'm a mother to two small children, aged 4 and 2, and it's great!

PHILOSOPHY

People are great.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In 2015, my husband Ian and I did a 5000km, 9 month walk from London to Ankara. We were hosted by so many wonderful, welcoming people on the way and would like to be able to offer the same kind of hospitality to others in return.
I've been absent from couchsurfing since the beginning of the Covid pandemic, but am keen to get involved again. We have two daughters, Martha and Greta, and I love the idea of them growing up in a house that welcomes people from all over the world.
