Overview
About Me
Hi! I was born in London, and trained as a teacher before working in the charity sector in the UK and abroad. I have lived in Italy, Spain and South America for study and work. I have recently returned to London after a long time abroad (Bolivia, Chile and Brazil) with amazing memories and I'm settled there now. As well as travel, I love music, history and literature, speaking other languages and meeting new people! I believe in the pure joy of travel and chance encounters, and helping to make the world happier and less unequal.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I would like to meet new people on my travels.
