My name is Naomi, I'm 29 and from England. I'm currently traveling around central america with my niece Amy. Previously I was working as a software engineer at Ordnance Survey - the British national mapping agency. I've lived, traveled and worked in several countries and love to meet and stay with local people. I'm Christian and I'm part of Life church in Southampton.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To stay with local people in the places I visit and get a genuine experience of the culture.
"A traveller is someone who proceeds through a country under his own initiative with a certain internal drive to learn, to find out something more than the superficial." Adam Curtis
