Born in Liverpool, UK.

Optimistic student yet to see the world. I never want to stop getting those butterflies of learning something new and meeting new people. I've been in education most of my life and worked in politics for the rest of it.

In England we're all quiet and polite and never really mention politics, so if that's not your thing don't worry I wont be rambling on about it. Unless you want to of course, it is my major at University.

PHILOSOPHIES

- Only boring people get bored.
- Manners never hurt anyone.
- Charm gets you far, kindness gets you further.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I long thought the world was a scary place until I went hitch-hiking from the UK to Germany. On the way I met so many wonderful and kind people my entire world view changed, all of a sudden there were just millions of people like me wanting to see the world, dare to do more and just be generally nice to each other.

Centres d'intérêt

I love food, cooking and eating it. Really looking forward to learning some new recipes on the road and eating out as much as possible. Recommendations highly appreciated.

I exercise regularly, a avid reader of current affairs and volunteer a lot teaching and working with children.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Happened to bump into my favourite comedian, Stewart Lee, at the back of a queue for a comedy gig and went into together. Chatted, got each other and managed to make HIM laugh.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

-Cooking: I can cook, so don't mind helping out or serving up something nice -Book-for-book: I'd love to swap a novel on the road
-Stories: I'm never scared to avoid an opportunity, so I have a bucket-full of anecdotes which include celebrities and Russian gangsters
