Hi, I'm Helen, I'm from the UK. I use couchsurfing for surfing, hosting, meeting up with other users, and occasionally attending events.

I do online animal rights activism (and offline!) - please check out my YouTube: Eco-friendly Vegan Geek.

Please make sure you read my whole profile before sending me a surf request, otherwise I may not respond, if I can tell you haven’t read it. Thanks!

I like art, music, poetry, reading, gymnastics, yoga, hiking and nature.

What I expect from couchsurfers as well as the obvious:-
Please make sure at least one thing is verified on your profile, before sending me a request. And have your ID ready to show me when we first meet, please.
Also, make sure you have a few references, at least personal if you have no CS experience, before sending me a request.

No animal-ingredient foods in the house please.

Please watch one of the following documentaries (found on YouTube or Netflix) and let me know what you think, in your couchsurf request:-
Land of hope and glory
Earthlings
Dominion
Cowspiracy
Seaspiracy

I like to hang out, chat, laugh, get to know different people and learn from them...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet fellow travel lovers, wherever I am.

Couchsurfing -
I have done quite a bit of couchsurfing, mainly in California in 2017-2018.

Hosting -
I'd love to host a few people before I couchsurf again, to experience the other side 😊 and also to aim to be as awesome a host as all my hosts were to me!
I'd like to be your tour guide in the local area, or offer advice on places to go. I believe we learn from every person we meet, as every single individual is obviously different and unique. What better way to meet new people than hosting! Also any recommendations of great things to do/places to go in any other part of the world would be a bonus!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done a few exciting things, which one to choose... 🤔 let's chat and find this out about each other!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Or surfers!

Travel stories, and interesting conversation about pretty much anything, from the universe and beyond, to personal desires and goals in life.

Also I have taken part in a life changing, self-help weekend, which has positively impacted my everyday life. I truly believe that it could benefit anybody, in some way. It was with an organisation that puts on events all over the world, so I'd be more than happy to share more information about the sorts of things I learned, and how to find out about their future events.
