A London girl that left behind the Big Smoke for Latin America in search of new adventures, fun people and good times! In my year travel, my journey has taken me to delicious tacos and mountain top natural infinity pools in Mexico, diving for the first time and party with my CS host in Colombia, experiencing what altitude at 4000m+ means in Ecuador, eating the best ceviche and seeing the Milky Way for the first time in the Andes in Peru, experiencing near death after a collision on the famous Death Road and the tropical heat of the jungle in Bolivia. In beautiful Chile I volunteered in the crazy party city of Valpo for New Year (what a party!) and enjoyed 5 lush weeks on a working farm on the shores of Lago Rupanco. My journey then continued hitchhiking down the Carretera Austral to Torres de Paine for the infamous W trek. This brings me up to date to fin del mundo in Ushuaia,

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The people who grow up in the country or the city, are the ones that know it best, its charms, its secrets, where to go, where to eat, what to do, the parties ... all those great experiences that are not on the tourist trail. They are the best people to know and teach me about the life and the culture.

Previous experience
CS in Medellin with Daniel
CS in Lima with Marcelo

As I am travelling slow, there are times when I am in one place for a few weeks, so in these cases, its good to meet up with other CS who are also travelling through :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Wow, there are so many beautiful experiences that I have had on my travels, not limited to those in my About Me section, but the few that stand out are:
* Diving in Colombia - I can not swim, so BIG freaking deal!!
* Climbing to 4750m on the Santa Cruz loop in Peru - bloody hell, 4 days hiking, 45km, the altitude, a killer but so was the landscape.
* Star gazing in the Sahara desert with one of my best friends in Morocco.
* Sky diving in Australia.
* The W trek in Torres del Paine - solo trekking and carrying all my own stuff for 5 days across incredible landscapes.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to learn from other people. Everyone can teach you something. Just sharing stories of your life, travels, loves and lessons is good for me.

But other than that... we can share rum or beer or a cocktail or two?!!!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook and love feeding people!!
