I'm a film, audio and digital arts producer making work about urgent social, political and environmental issues. You can read more about my work here: www.hannaheugenie.com.

I'm motivated by meeting new people with different and interesting backgrounds and experiences, rather than seeing the top tourist sites in a city.

I love trying new things and new vegan food, and prefer to walk around cities than get the metro. I really, really dislike Hop On Hop Off buses.

Growing up, I lived in New Orleans for 3 years before moving back to England. In 2015 I spontaneously moved to Barcelona to chase a romance which has luckily worked out. I've also lived in Seoul, South Korea.

I ran the London Marathon in 2016 for Mind, a UK mental health charity. In 2018, I ran the London Marathon again (through a very lucky ballot place) and the Berlin Marathon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new friends when I'm travelling and learn more about the place I'm in. I'd love to host one day once I have a place that's big enough.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm terrified of heights and somehow managed to complete the CN Tower Edge Walk, it was a big achievement for me!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good chat about anything social, political, artsy or philosophical. I also love cooking and eating out - I've been told by a few people that nothing makes me look as happy as a good meal!
