Overview
About Me
I'm a big dreamer, love the simple things in life but want to achieve the greatest of things (e.g, see the world!) I work in a Building Society as a savings adviser, it's not where I pictured myself, but the people I work with are lovely :)
I've been listening to my 'elders' so to speak, and from experience they wished they got out, travelling and threw caution into the wind and regret not doing it.
I think life is all about trial and error and learning from our own mistakes and being inspired by other peoples accomplishments. Music, Films & Quotes motivate me.
"Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. - Mark Twain"
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Live Life Spontaneously is my motto, I think it's something we should all live by :) I want to see the world in the most frugal way possible and I think if we all support each other, we can all do the same. - I would appreciate someones couch whilst I'm travelling, in return, I would love to do the same and help out other fellow travelers :)
Interests
I have a wide range of passions, no doubt there will be something we have in common! I adore the 1950's, rockabilly community, I adore music and will listen to almost all genres, modern and old! I enjoy films and games as well. Classic Cars, Motorbikes, Disney, Theme Parks, Spiritualism, Photography, Art, Reading, Dancing, Burlesque, and of course, travelling!

Music, Movies, and Books
It differs depending on how I'm feeling, I'm a rockabilly girl in the inside, I LOVE Elvis Presley. I adore swing music such as Glenn Miller and Benny Goodman. I love rock music, acoustic, jazz, pop, dubstep... From Ed Sheeran to Bring Me The Horizon... I enjoy all sorts of music :)
Movies - I love a good romcom, fantasy, comedy... favourites movies are - Burlesque, Harry Potter, THE HUNGER GAMES! Blue Hawaii, James Bond (the ones with Daniel Craig), Twilight (sorry! guilty pleasure), Avatar, Disney movies such as the little mermaid... emperors new groove... cinderella :)
Books - Again, my favourite trilogy is the hunger games, I did enjoy 50 shades of grey (not even sorry haha!) I love watching documentaries and reading non-fictional books.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I lived with a family in France, Le Havre and travelled around parts of France. - couldn't speak french but my friends taught me to say "I climbed the Eiffel Tower and it was tiring!" so I could go back and tell my host family something :) couldn't tell you how to say it now though, sadly I've got a memory like a fish!
I also swam with dolphins and held a gator at the Everglades last year!
Teach, Learn, Share
I have no idea what this part is for - I will teach you all I know, support you and be a friend when needed, answer questions you have and happily show you nice places and beautiful hidden gems around the area I live in!
Even if you don't need a couch (or sofa here in the UK) to sleep on, I'm always happy to talk to you, recommend local places or meet up to show you :)
