Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To find out where I belong in the world and enjoying the ride on the way
ABOUT ME
Born in London, moved to just outside of London in a place called essex...although I am NOT an essex girl, ...and yes the jokes do get old. :)
Exploring the world as often as I can, is kind of my main goal in life. I'm looking for the perfect job that will let me do that too, but then I guess.... Isn't everyone?!
I'm very much a 'go with the flow' kinda girl, try not to plan too far ahead as you never know what's around the corner. Of course though, this can have its downfalls! :p
Life scares me, but it's all about getting out there surely and seeing what it is that scares you. Ignorance leads to fear. Life's about taking chances and living for the moment.
I'm very much about doing things for the experience and enjoying life (just look at my degree subject) without hurting anyone or anything along the way. I won't kill spiders like most people ;)
Not a massive drinker...I'm one of those 'my body is a temple types' but it's been known that I have gone a lil' crazy every now and again.
I'm quite a bubbly, chilled, excitable person (that's like an oxymoron surely). Working fulltime has definitely made me more stressed, which is why i take every opportunity to escape the working life.
PHILOSOPHY
Live like every day could be your last.
Try not to plan too far ahead.
Laugh so much it hurts and if a bit of pee comes out even better....
Love love love
Be creative!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've only been able to surf over the world unfortunately due to my living situation at home. I was lodging with a family, which meant I wasn't able to host, but I hope that will change when I get back to London next time round.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Have surfed quite a few couches around the world so far and it's been awesome! The concept is just so lovely, and to find people who are so open to sharing their home and stories is great! Every experience is so different!
Interests
Trying something new. Never thought i'd do a skydive but i did it! Surfing, but I absolutely suck at it. I love the theatre, performance, silly people,anything that opens my mind, makes me laugh, is crazy... sexy... cool. Netball-playing, Rugby-watching, gym, keeping fit. Exercise, hill walking.
Artsy things: making things, painting, crafting.
And don't judge...but I do like to make patchwork quilts with my mum (who helps :-)
