Overview
About Me
Hi There,
I work part time as an Optometrist for 3 local companies, and part time managing property investments. My partner John is also in the same profession but works for another local independent company.
We love to travel and explore. In the last year we have had 4 pet sitting opportunities in France and the UK. References can be seen to show that our hosts were delighted with how we looked after the pets and took care of their home whilst they were away. We can provide a link to see these up to date references.
Our daughter Charlotte loves to ice skate. I've been joining in but lagging behind (but only a bit!!) We have been taking lessons. Charlotte is about to try out for the local synchronised skating team in Nottingham.
John's passions are windsurfing and cycling. I love to teach piano, grow vegetables and ski.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
We like the idea of staying with a local host and potentially hosting them and their family, should they wish to visit the UK. We have a home in the countryside near Nottingham and lots of great sites to explore. We enjoy riding our bikes and walking in the countryside.
