Hi, I'm Emily
I am an art and textiles technician in London and am currently training to work across schools providing art workshops.
I love to make things! I'm a printmaker by trade but I make clothes, knit things, crochet things, make vegetarian food, make things grow in the garden (not sure that counts really), and I'm currently learning how to make things out of clay! I also love music, cycling, walking, wild swimming and being outside!

I'll be travelling to Japan with my lovely boyfriend Lawrence in the spring. This will be our second visit to this beautiful country and we can't wait to explore.
At some point I want to try and convince him to travel more with me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am new to couchsurfing and have heard such brilliant things from many friends and am looking forward to being part of the community.
I'm excited to meet new people and hear their experiences of life, travelling etc
