CURRENT MISSION

To meet the people who make waking up worth it.

ABOUT ME

I am a laid back person who appreciates a sharp, playful sense of humour. I like playing the cello, drinking coffee and having a dance. I am sometimes the centre of conversation, but I love being around those who keep me quiet. I am not good at telling jokes, but love word play and ad lib humour.

PHILOSOPHY

My motivation comes from just how diverse and bizarre we all are. I don't think there is any particular point to life on earth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new here. I want to remember how good it is to host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had one crazy month where I co-hosted about 30 surfers. Been away from Cardiff since then but now I have a home and want to use it well :)

Not yet surfed myself but planning to do so in the future!

Interests

I like cycling, cooking and home-brewing. I am interested in politics, particularly the politics of health and development. I love traditional folk music, good synthpop, funk, house and techno. I come from a small island so I am a big fan of the sea.
