Half British, half Finnish queer living it up in Helsinki.

Being a chef I love to cook and learn new things about food. I love to drink beer (I once tried to not drink beer for some stupid reason and that lasted a grand total of 60 hours), and will always be willing to try a new kind of beer. I also like gin.

I can be very social, and while I do enjoy being with my friends I do find it draining. I'm slightly socially anxious and need my own space and time to recharge my batteries and be my best self.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I think it's great that there is an opportunity to travel with a small budget and not starve. It's also an opportunity to meet people and make new friends.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've both hosted and surfed and met with other CouchSurfers in various cities and made great friends through the socials.

Interests

I have a varied interest that is not limited to cooking, watching movies, listening to music and going to gigs, reading, going to the theatre, obsessing over musicals, reading about politics and socialising with my friends. I’m unabashedly queer and gender non-binary, if this is an issue for you please don’t bother.

Music, Movies, and Books

I could spend a year talking about my favourite books, films and artists, so instead of writing an essay here we can talk about our faves when we meet up!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sitting in a natural hot pool in Iceland whilst it was snowing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like polite and kind people, who don't take everything for granted.
