CURRENT MISSION

what is a mission? To dance tango around the world, maybe? More of an indulgence than a mission, I guess.....but there ae worse things to aspire to! I love the Spanish/ Latin culture, sometimes I think I was born in the wrong skin!!

ABOUT ME

Found myself living in Totnes transition town (read all about it) after a year in Buenos Aires....love tango, the dance, the music, the tradition, everything. Currently fulfilling my dream to dance in all the wonderful tango locations in the world, but on a very small buget! Never been motivated by a 2.2 lifestyle, my travel and memories, the people and places and cultures I have seen mean more to me than bricks and mortar, I am stil curious and of very itchy feet! My addiction to tango pretty much occupies all of my spare time at the moment, very one track minded but open to suggestions!

PHILOSOPHY

To try to remember why I chose to come here and live this life (this time round)...and to stop worrying so much....to laugh every day....to always have a dream
And most importantly, to eat alot of chocolate. and I mean ALOT!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to this, but if anyone is visiting my hometown (also rich in tango and spanish speaking people, which outnumber the locals it seems, I hear spanish spoken wherever I go!)I am happy to give my time to meet people (spanish speakers most welcome!)for coffee, walks, to try to find accomodation and things to do, to dance!! Also open to suggestion!
