PHILOSOPHY

"If the world is a book, than those that don't travel, read only one page."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately I cannot put anyone up, because I have moved back to live with my parents for a while.

As soon as I get my own place again I will help when I can!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couch surfed my way around Germany and The Netherlands on a trip in November and it was fantastic. I met the most amazing people who hosted me!! They were all amzing, incredible people and my trip without them would have not been the same. I would like to say cheers to anyone and everyone in advance, who ever makes my travelling that bit more special. Look forward to meeting you!

Interests

I love travelling, experiencing different cultures, lifestyles, helping others, meeting new people from all over the world and making crazy new friends. :) I like a good night out, but also am never one to turn down a well deserved chill day every now and then...movie marathons with a big group of mates and duvets everywhereee, girls night in, pizza & PJ night, and a good cuppa. :)

I LOVE music, films, print & pattern, comedy.

I'm also a Cubs Scout assistant leader :) I love camping, kids, exploring, teaching and fun stuff !!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydive for charity.
Seeing the horizon from the Rockefeller Center in New York.
Having my 'own place' for about 2 days in Brooklyn, when my friend from camp let me stay even though she had to leave.

Wild camping hidden in a Christmas tree farm in Devon!

2014 was my year of travel.

Highlights include:
Seeing the Magic Fountain in Barcelona.
Badeschniff in Berlin!
Rock climbing & Gill scrambling in Switzerland
Surviving falling down a mountain in Ibiza when one of my adventurous hikes went wrong.
Cycling around Formentera-- aka. PARADISE.
Hitch hiking & blablacar-ing in The Netherlands & Northern Germany.
Staying with a nudist household, was an incredibly eye opening few days. Love yourself. Our body's are natural.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn French, and speak it fluently one day.

I am very artistic and can share my passion for art and crafts.

Also, I am a music lover, and love meeting and listening to new music, bands, artists, so would share this passion.
