About Me

Hi Everyone!

Where to begin! I am a country bumpkin, born and raised in a beautiful seaside town in South West England. I grew up in a hotel that was owned by my parents, so have always been familiar with meeting and living with interesting people! I luckily sailed through school (I have a slight photographic memory ;-) and went to work at Disney World in Florida for my Gap Year! An opportunity arose and thought, hell yes! I came back and knuckled down at University and got the highest grades in the whole University. Though my passion has always been acting, I won a scholarship to study Psychology to Masters level and took it! Well, psychology will always help me get into my acting deeper! I then trained intensely at a drama school in New York and another in London. I now live in London and am slowly building up my career. Mostly theatre work but I'm gradually moving into screen. I filmed a commercial that will air Nationally last week! When I'm not acting, I run my own dog walking/training business in London's Hyde Park. I even walk celebrities dogs! I love dogs, yoga, theatre, films, food and travelling, oh and biscuits! Haha. People say I have a wonderful aura. I am very warm and fun, with a kind heart and an interest in meeting new people and exploring this wonderful world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I only just found out about Couchsurfing and am literally completing this profile right away. What a fantastic idea! As I mentioned above, I grew up in my parents hotel and have spent my life living with fascinating new people. I love the idea of couchsurfing abroad because it means I can meet new people, and experience the REAL culture of a place! I would happily sleep on a hard floor and wake up early every day to see the sun rise (maybe do some yoga!) and get to really experience a country's true authentic culture! So so exciting! Also, making these new friends, I am more than happy to return the favour if they want to visit me in exciting London, UK!

My energy and verve for life! My incredible (and hilarious) stories from both my acting career and my dog walking/sitting job. You wouldn't believe the houses I've dog sat in and the stories of how these people raise their pets!
