My names Abbie and I’m a traveller from Glenrothes, Scotland (near Edinburgh). I’m in the USA on cultural exchange teaching drama and dance at summer camps. After I’ve finished up with camp I’m planning to travel some new cities in the US because I find it amazing how the culture varies from state to state of the same country and love American history. I love travelling and getting to learn about new cultures. So far I’ve been to a variety of Greek and Spanish islands, mainland Spain, Morocco, Germany, Ireland, Canada, America, the Dominican Republic, Portugal, Belgium and Italy. Some of the countries high up on my travel bucketlist are Sri Lanka, Thailand, Kenya, Chile and South Africa.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling, getting to meet new people, learning about different cultures and seeing new cities. I’ve had a lot of friends meet some really cool people from couch surfing and said it’s a great way to see new cities so I wanted to try it out.
