About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world and do as much as I can to make a real difference, be it volunteering, activism or through my writing. Even just making people smile is making a real difference in my eyes =D

ABOUT ME

Well I could start off by saying that I enjoy travelling - I once left my home by foot willing to walk around the globe with only £70 - I didn't walk all the way but I was away for 1 year and had the most amazing time volunteering through Europe and Turkey. I like to laugh, explore, experience new things! I enjoy partying - but nowhere near as much as I used to!

I once wrote 28 000 words about the things I am grateful for and why I am grateful for them.

I like crystals and rocks - I collect them from all over. I like all kinds of music and approach it with an open mind.

I enjoy being creative in art, business and thought :)

PHILOSOPHY

Keep it simple, kindness, love (unconditional) and compassion.
Treat others how you wish to be treated.
Non judgement.
Holistic

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Being me

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have used this service many times and I just love meeting new people, from new places and learning new things.

Interests

I enjoy writing, I have done since I was around 14 and it has been my dream to become an accomplished author. I guess I just want to write an interesting story, so I really have to create it myself. One day I hope people will inspired by me in the same ways I have been inspired - deciding to follow their dreams, even when the odds are stacked against them. Other than that I like art and music and general gatherings that include all the good stuff about life in one place. I enjoy being out in nature and feel a strong connection with life itself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I seen a total solar eclipse in 2010 on Easter Island, that has to be at the very top moments of being awestruck.
I crossed the Inca bridge near Macau Picchu, even though it is bordered off :/ Rebel!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am also a transformational breath-work practitioner. It is recommended to charge £80 a session but I have never charged anyone. I can also do past life regressions and some shamanic healing techniques that I am really familiar with and have always had good results with.

Countries I’ve Visited

Bulgaria, Chile, Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Gambia, Germany, Greece, Netherlands, Peru, Spain, Turkey, United States
