Overview
About Me
Hello!
I am a 27 year old Brit who loves to explore the world, meet new people, learn all there is to know about everything, get stuck into anything active especially in nature (yoga, boarding, hiking, swimming, scuba diving, climbing, swimming). I love travelling, photography, creating artwork, yoga, anything to do with adventures in the mountains, and I love reading a hella lot of psychology books!
I graduated from university as an uninspired student in 2015. So I moved to Canada, and fell in love with the mountains. Since then I've roadtripped through the US, backpacked around the Caribbean, done a long stint on a workaway in Dominica building an eco village. In 2018 I spent some time in New York and then went to study Yoga in India. I moved to New Zealand for a year and most recently I've spent some much needed time at home with family! Travelling has introduced me to a conscious life, one that I am so grateful to be living and sharing with others. Aiming to be the change I want to see in the world, as they say!
I am currently finishing up a job in England, but I'm looking to move back to the mountains, where I want to settle for a while. Interlaken is first on my radar! Couchsurfing is a wonderful way to meet some locals and get a taste for a place before commiting to a long term plan, I hope to return the favour of hosting when I'm settled.
I'm easy-going, considerate, positive person and I would be eternally grateful for your hospitality :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing encompasses everything I love about the travelling community. Mutual trust, appreciating people for more than their money, and spreading understanding, knowledge and love in the world. I salute you kind hosts. I look forward to the day I can give back.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Spent Christmas day 30 metres under the Caribbean sea.. chilling with the turtles :D
I raised £3000 for the Epilepsy Society in 8 months while I was in my final year at uni.
Teach, Learn, Share
All about sharing stories, perspectives, photographs, travel advice. Love learning from each other.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Positivity, smiles, travel stories and travel tips! I make lots of things, I will have my pyrography pen with me to create some wood art, I can share yoga tips, vegan cooking knowledge and help out where needed. I'm always eager to give back.
I helped my last couchsurfer on Vancouver Island when they moved house. I cleaned up the floors, and painted a mural on the wall (you can see it in one of my pictures). I'm pretty practical and don't mind getting stuck in. Especially muddy outdoors stuff. I love it.
