About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to complete my first venture into solo travelling in one piece

ABOUT ME

I am a bubbly chatty person that embraces everything that is thrown my way! I like to spend lots of time with people and rarely like to be alone - which is why the idea of travelling alone for three months fills me with nervous excitement but I'm ready to dive in and go for it! I hope to meet some interesting people along the way and return the favour once I have a home in London.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't do anything that requires you to be dishonest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Haven't yet had a couchsurfing experience - I have heard good things and really like the concept of meeting likeminded people in this way!

Interests

I love going out and about be it daytime activities going and visiting various sights or going out at night with friends. I love food - it is an absolute passion of mine so trying new and exciting cuisine around the world would be amazing. I love watching films and chilling out too, I don't always have to be super on the go. I have recently completed a Law degree in England, I am using the three month gap between now and my new job start to see a bit of the world!

Music, Movies, and Books

All sorts - i'm the typical rom com kinda girl who when forced to watch action usually really enjoys it! The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd is my favourite book by far, along with A Civil Action but that's slightly more obscure. I'm famed for my inability to keep up to date with music but will happily listen to most things..

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The sight of wild lion cubs sunbathing with a pride on safari in Tanzania was a pretty spectacular sight - if only I could have honed my photography skills in advance!
Think the next amazing thing I will be doing is going travelling alone.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a Law degree from England so can happily participate in discussions about this/comparisons to other countries - proves for some interesting pub conversations.
I would absolutely LOVE to learn to windsurf better - I did my beginner courses years ago but have forgotten most of that these days!
I'm also a pretty good cook - would love to learn more from a professional but also I can happily teach a novice!

Countries I’ve Visited

France, Germany, Greece, Spain, Tanzania, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

United Kingdom
