I'm a print designer specialising in garments and fabrics, creative and open minded, needing a break from living in London.

Taking time to travel whilst I'm writing a novel, looking for interesting people and new places to inspire me.

I'm at a point where I'm unsure what I'm looking for in life, but I enjoy the looking nonetheless...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I always enjoy a change of scenery, meeting people I may not otherwise have met and I want to reciprocate the kindness I've been shown by strangers.

Interests

I paint, I draw, I write and I read at least one book a week. I love cooking without using recipes, attempting to perfect certain sauces and cuisines.

When I'm not playing around with new ideas, I'm adventuring (wanderlust), I decided whatever happens I want it to make a compelling story.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Built a business from scratch, stressful but worth it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm beginning to believe that the more I learn the less I know.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I value nothing more than deep conversation, intellectual or otherwise; sometimes you can only learn so much from reading.

I can help with creative projects using my skills in fine art and graphic design, I can also help clean, perform manual labor and I am an excellent cook (I don't consider it a chore!) and I bring my own ingredients.
