Borders bring nothing but pain - let's connect and break that shit down!

I grew up near London but have been moving around Europe in search of creative communities and affordable rent! I'm currently living in Glasgow - I'm working part time in social work and study fashion and costume design.

Please do not apply to stay with me if you hold any racist, sexist, homophobic, transphonic or xenophobic views - you will not be tolerated :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet kind and interesting people, to exchange ideas and to expand my world view.

Due to some previous experiences with surfers I am mostly here to host queer surfers and provide a safe space for female traveler, and anyone who may otherwise feel uncomfortable or vulnerable elsewhere - not here to tolerate or educate re: sexism, homophobia, transphobia etc. Thanks!

Interests

I studied social sciences for 4 years which involves some politics and philosophy too. I am particularly interested in cities, cultural history and anti-capitalism (tear that shit down!)

I design and make clothes for myself and friends - I work in a DIY, anti-consumerist practice, crafting with waste materials and secondhand garments

You can often find me listening to weird music, exploring cities on my 2 feet (or on 2 wheels), or noodles in various forms

• animals
• design
• fashion
• vegan
• politics
• cinema
• feminism
• cities
• environmentalism
• critical thinking
• polyamory
• costume
• queer theory
• swimming in the sea
• trans rights
• thumping techno parties

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy pop as an art form, as well as folk, ambient, and a wide spectrum of electronic music

Books, film and TV wise I'm into queer revolutionary stuff, working class history, culture and societies, surreal twisted fiction, horror, some elements of sci-fi and fantasy.. that said, Sex in the City is the pinnacle of human culture

Lover of high and low culture, and unearthing one inside the other

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living and working on a mountain farm in Norway - hiking with goats, nude swimming in the fjord, picking wild mushrooms, watching whales play in the waters...

Teach, Learn, Share

It could also be nice to learn some creative skills and practice my German - can exchange either in return

Hosts should know that I wash up good and can separate recyclable goods nicely

What I Can Share with Hosts

Knowledge, laughs, stories, books, a curious ear, creative skills, and tonnes of vegan recipes
