Overview
About Me
My friends would say I'm relaxed, creative and outgoing!
I love the outdoors, hiking, yoga, pottery, languages and of course travelling. I work at a university and run a small business. I enjoy meeting new people and trying new things. I'm rarely able to host right now but will meet up and show you the city when I can!
I first discovered couchsurfing in 2015 (8 years ago - eeek!) through my flat mate when I was living in France. (Thank you Andrei!) I have hosted in Glasgow, and surfed in the US, Russia, Mexico, Ukraine and Germany just to name a few! I truly have made some friends for life through CS and I love being part of this community!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing is NOT about free accommodation and it is a not a dating app. I’m here to make connections and have cultural experiences with other like-minded people across the world.
