About Me

I spent my 20's working to travel. The last few years I've made a conscious effort to try and sit still and put some roots down.

I've been on Jura for a couple of years now and I'm very grateful for what I've found. Such a magical island where everyday can be an adventure.

I have a small two bedroom cottage with arguably the best views on the island. I work here and there on the island, sometimes I'm busy sometimes I'm not. I prefer life in the slow lane on Jura, cultivating my creativity.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a few amazing people when I had the space when I was in Thailand for a few years. I've surfed around over the years also. Now it's time to open the doors again and share my space and meet some new interesting folk.

Interests

I paint, make music, climb hills, fish, forage, help out with community events on the island.
