Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Living life to the full.
Avid dromomaniac.
Moving back to Vancouver to be closer to my boyfriend, after having lived in Victoria for a year - and well, back and forth from the lovely UK! Hopefully along the way I can meet some lovely people with like minded interests.
I've been traveling for quite a few years , and have met so many wonderful people along the way, I feel blessed that I have been able to achieve it.
I enjoy hiking, travel, yoga, meditation, camping, adventures, taking photographs, being around people with a great sense of humour , biking, socializing and being outdoors, come rain or shine!
I'm friendly and kind, very humble and compassionate. I like peace and quiet but love being around people :)
PHILOSOPHY
Never give up, good things come unexpectedly.
Always be positive, everything usually always work out.
Smile smile smile.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I consider myself a really positive and optimistic person. I love travelling and being free, I don't enjoy living in a world where we are expected to do things a certain way or follow the 'system' life, it's short, and it needs to be nourished. I love meeting new people, chatting, and sharing stories and laughter.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have never couched surfed before, but very excited to start, and eventually, would love to become a host when I have a place to call home!
Interests
camping, hiking, folk music, photography (no idea on the technical stuff!) adventures, yoga, cooking, folk music, campfires, , meeting new people, travel, lakes.
I'm happiest in a wooden shack with a wood burning fire.
