'Ello! Hola¡ Bonjour! Ciao! fellow couchsurfer.

One of my favourite past times in the whole wide world is to hear people's stories - why they love what they love and the experiences that have shaped them. Everyone has their own unique story to tell and I believe you can always come away a little richer by seeing the world through someone else's eyes for a while. I feel, and have experienced, that couchsurfing is an amazing way to share stories, culture and fun with strangers that are soon to be new friends.

I'd say that I'm pretty much up for most things. I love trying new things and learning as much as I can. In my spare time, I get outdoors as much as possible, and love cycling, hiking, sea swimming and practising Yoga. I also enjoy going for nights out and a few drinks and a dance! On a rainy day, you'll find me cooking or reading/watching something I find inspiring.

I was born and bred on a tiny little island outside of England called Guernsey. 5 points for you if you've heard of it before in your lifetime ;) I've since moved to Southampton to work, and currently live in a house full of other yogis, who make music together regularly. It's a beautiful big house, and a great, welcoming energy to come in to.

I’d love to have you if I'm free, and you feel like we'd get on :) As I live with 6 other people, I always need to check with them first if there is space for the couchsurfer, so please don't worry if I don't reply straight away.
