CURRENT MISSION

To laugh a lot and enjoy the simple pleasures in life.

ABOUT ME

I grew up in a rural town in North West England and its isolated setting gave me a great curiosity for different cultures and a passion for adventures, travelling and learning new perspectives.

I am currently based in Manchester but I often feel a great urge to escape the city and experience life in other places. I've been lucky enough to spend one year studying in Spain and one year working in Venezuela and I am always seeking new adventures and experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is really simple, but we just insist on making it complicated.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have couchsurfed on a couple of occasions and when I finish my crazy teaching course in summer 2012, I would LOVE to show visitors the hidden gems of Manchester and the surrounding area. Unfortunately I am working 15 hour days at the moment so I am no fun :(.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've just joined the couchsurfing network but I have couch surfed before using friends' contacts.

Intereses

Things I especially like:
Adventures, learning new languages, laughing, long bike rides, playing the saxophone, dancing salsa and bachata, living by the sea, starry skies, drinking coffee, hiking, WWOOFing, sunsets, tropical rain, capoeira.
