I hate writing bio's, but I'll try!
I've been told I'm quirky and odd but in an endearing way (I hope!).
I, like many here I imagine, don't like to stay in one place for too long. Life is a collection of experiences and that's pretty much all we have, so we should endeavour to make the most of those experiences for ourselves and every living thing around us!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've wanted to join for years, but never had the guts before. Im taking the leap and going off for a solo adventure, stopping off to meet and make the odd international friend on the way :)

Interests

I love how people interact with experiences. Sharing a favourite thing with someone is indescribable. I love to see what the people around me enjoy -activities, books, films, foods, friends, personal experiences, anything- and sharing my loves so they can be enjoyed.

The Night Circus

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't know how I could ever make a list when it's so often evolving...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Waking up on a felucca on the Nile to watch the sunrise was quite incredible. But then again, so was watching the sunset in the Scottish mountains.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help with your English- spoken and written! And I'm open to learning anything you're willing to share!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I couldn't offer enough to repay that trust and kindness, but I can offer the chance be immortalised in a memoir that will never be read. I also love food, and fusion cooking and would gladly prepare a meal for or with you so we can share our cultures!

Countries I’ve Visited
