CURRENT MISSION Planning and going on big trips. ABOUT ME I enjoy travelling and usually manage several trips a year to a new country. I don't often go back - there are too many places I haven't seen! I am an experienced nature conservation volunteer. I can clear scrub, cut down trees (much more often than I ever plant any!), build fences and bridges, repair and make footpaths and so on. I used to belong to the Conservation Volunteers (TCV) when it was an international environmental charity and I used my annual leave to work on one overseas project every year. We worked alongside local volunteers and I always had a really good time! TCV doesn't do any overseas work anymore, so I've worked on a project with Habitat for Humanity and am looking at other options to volunteer on short projects overseas. I like learning new languages but I just shove them in my short-term memory before my trip and usually forget them afterwards. I enjoy teaching Welsh to adults. PHILOSOPHY Life is what you make of it. Don't just sit on your backside - go out there and see what happens.

Perché sono su Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I love, love, love meeting new people! I host guests and go to CS meetings in Cardiff. I surf sometimes, usually when I'm travelling overseas. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I have hosted lots of people and met visitors for a chat or a meal. I love the amazing conversations I have with couchsurfers!
Musica, film e libri
My music tastes are pretty wide-ranging, from Rammstein to Geraint Jarman a'r Cynganeddwyr to the Chieftains. My taste in books is equally difficult to pigeonhole. I like crime novels and science fiction and modern Welsh fiction. My taste in films ranges from Hollywood blockbusters to far more thoughtful films. I usually go to the cinema once a week. My favourite films include Hard Candy, Lola Rennt/Run Lola Run, Dal Yma Nawr/Still Here Now and The Wall.
Una cosa straordinaria che ho fatto
Building an 8-metre long wooden bridge in the US is the most amazing thing I've done and the Blautopf in Blaubeuren, southern Germany is the most amazing this I have ever see - a small, deep pool which is an unbelievable shade of turquiose. Any photo of it looks fake.
Insegna, Impara, Condividi
I am an experienced adult education teacher - I teach Welsh to adults. I can teach people how to plant a young tree and move a fully grown one. I like to learn about other languages and cultures and to practise the ones I know a bit.
Cosa posso offrire agli host
I'm not much of a cook but I make a mean vegetarian shepherd's pie. If you have any questions about English grammar (or Welsh, of course), I'm your woman!
I miei interessi
I sing in an enormous mixed choir - over 100 members - and I really enjoy it. I'm an alto and my choir, Cor y Gleision, sings everything from the sublime (Handel) to the ridiculous ("Delilah"). If you're around on a Thursday evening, you can come along and hear us rehearsing. I enjoy carrying out practical work to improve and protect the environment. I enjoy going to the theatre and cinema, and reading modern fiction. I belong to Welsh and English reading groups.
