Hey!

I'm Lucy, I'm 29 years old and I'm a teacher in the UK. I love travelling and learning new languages. I'm fluent in French and Spanish, and a native English speaker. I am from Birmingham and normally live in London.
I love animals, hikings, film and film-making, writing, and I'm very interested in Buddhism and meditation :)
I am vegetarian and I don't drink very much. Love meeting new people, learning about people's worlds, and cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm coming to Italy this summer to do a language course in Genoa so I'd love to meet locals and stay with someone from the area to practise my Italian and have a bit of a cultural exchange :)
