Hello! I work in for a global health NGO, mainly across Asia. I work on increasing access to affordable vaccines in developing countries - this involves both negotiating prices with suppliers, and supporting governments/ other NGOs on the operational side of introducing and delivering vaccines.

Home is Scotland but I’m rarely there because of my job - I travel about 80% of the time! (Do visit though - scotland is so beautiful!). I love eating and running and chatting and drinking gin. I read a lot and cycle a lot.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I genuinely believe that things are best enjoyed with other people. The happiest memories are those shared with friends, and often new friends. My job gives me a wonderful opportunity to travel and learn from other people and I want to make the most of it.

Música, películas y libros

Music: either chill stuff like Sufjan Stevens/Sharon Van Etten or quite intense EDM/trance :)
Books: a lot of non-fiction; and travel! Currently reading “One’s company” by Peter Fleming; and “The Vaccine Race”
Movies: I bloody love Wes Anderson films. The symmetry is incredibly beautiful.
