ABOUT ME

I am a Glaswegian, now living and loving Dalyan, South West Turkey. I can be funny/dry, caring and passionate. I speak from the heart and occasionally the hip. I have been backpacking with my husband Joe for 20 years, some long trips, some short but all with passion, excitement, laughter, reflection and open mindedness.
My other passions are people, cooking, music (many genres), reading, documentaries, world/political awareness, and i love my family, friends and husband.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's too short....what goes around comes around!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING#

I host as I enjoy meeting travellers, sharing stories and my home, which allows people to travel more. I surf for these reasons and of course it makes travel more affordable.

Usually I host guests except in the height of summer, as many of our friends and family visit from Scotland usually spending 1-2 weeks in Dalyan, occasionally 6 weeks. I do not host then but will met for drink, give advice to surfers.I have travelled for many years, and am totally committed to the philosophy of worldwide hospitality and friendship so guess that's why I'm a member.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

We were stalked and been attacked by a mother tiger in the foothills of the Himalayas, she was protecting her cub, lovely, scary, life changing!

教，学，和分享

I enjoy people who listen, who are confident and willing to share their positivity. I enjoy discussing what's happening across the planet, how we can engage with this and one another. I love talking to people about who they are, where they've been, what they think and WHY. I also talk/listen music, books, food, and like when people recommend stuff.
