We recently moved to Bristol and are still very much discovering all the nooks and crannies! I used couschsurfing an awful lot back in the day! I often used it as a way to decide where to hitch-hike to, based on the connections I wanted to make, rather than the places I wanted to see. It was a beautiful way to travel! Now, for the first time, I have a place of my own and am able to give back to the community that has given me so much. I live with my partner (Jog) and cat (Beans) who together help me to fill our house with boundless love. I practice yoga and meditate every day and you are more than welcome to join me! In the summer I enjoy swimming in the river, practising circus skills, kayaking and hiking. As the nights draw in and the weather gets cooler I enjoy crafts, board games, reading and hiking (but with a few more layers!). And whatever time of year it is, you will always find me in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes for local, seasonal produce! I love listening to people's stories and am interested in meeting people from all walks of life. PHILOSOPHY The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so simple and so obvious and yet everybody is rushing around in a great panic, as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves. - Alan Watts
