Hello! My name is George.
I'm from the UK and love to travel although haven't had much of a chance in the last few years.
In July 2024 I will be travelling in my van around Eastern Europe and hoping to meet some cool people and see some interesting things.
I like to get involved in projects, in the past I have done Art for music festivals, making yurts, building stuff out of scraps of wood.
For work I am a potter and pottery teacher.

I really love traveling in2019 I drove accross America and did some couch surfing.
September 2015 I went to India for 2 months doing an artist residency which was amazing.

Looking forward to a new adventure!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

To meet people and gain local perspectives. I think it is easy to visit a place without really learning much about it if you don't meet the people who live there and keep to yourself.
I am generally quite a shy person but I like to push myself into situations where I can meet new people and gain experiences. I think Couchsurfing is really good for this.

教，学，和分享

If you would like to learn a new craft, I'm your gal.
I've tried a lot of them, (not saying I'm a pro at them all but) I can try and teach you or teach myself as we go along!
Textiles, printing, soldering, papier Mache, collage, and many other, open to learning more!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can cook you a traditional dish from the exotic damp corners of West Country England....
I can show you some art or jewelry I've made.

If you would like a head shot done of your, or some cool photos of you for whatever reason, I can do that!

Also I have a box of various things I have made which is for swapping. If any one wants to do a swap!
