CURRENT MISSION

To make a positive difference in the world

ABOUT ME

I'm 36 years old. I was born in london but grew up on the island of Malta. I eventually studied law and specialised in human rights. I've lived in various places around the world due to my work as a human rights lawyer, mainly working with refugees in border areas. The last place I've lived in was the Ecuadorian jungle border with Colombia for two years. I also love photography and try to do as much of that when I can.

PHILOSOPHY

First of all, do no harm... and with that basis, try to make a positive difference.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I always try to play my part in trying to make the world a better place, even with just small gestures. Couching Surfing is a lovel idea because it is about sharing and linking people together.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to couch-surfing at the advice of friends who have been couch-surfers for years. Nevertheless, my house in the jungle has always been open to travellers and I have met some lovely people who are now great friends by hosting them for days or, when necessary, for months! If I have a space in my house, I am happy to share it!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

My job allows me to do amazing things... most of all meet great people in tough circumstances and try to be of support. From a travel point of view, I have crossed the Sahara desert by local buses, lived in the Amazon, crossed the Himalayas on a cranky local bus...
