Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to start surfing soon, and also host visitors to the East Midlands.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am completely new to Couch Surfing and am very excited for what I might find!

Interests

I bake a lot of bread and like to experiment with different types of ingredients. Drinking many types of tea. Learning languages. I like to paint and draw. I play the piano, clarinet and violin. I like cycling, running, walking and swimming. I love nature, spending time in the countryside and growing plants. And of course travelling and getting to know new places and people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hot air ballooning on a warm, clear summers evening above Hamburg.

Visiting the Scottish island of Rum.

Driving from England to Portugal and back in two weeks.

Sleeping out on the deck of a boat in the north sea, looking up at the most stars I have ever seen. Woke the next day to find that the boat was sitting on the sand, the water had all gone despite being miles from land.
