Overview
About Me
Hi! I love travelling and connecting with people. I am a tea lover, foodie, tech enthusiast and nature lover.
I work with adolescents and the inner child of adults, using technology to make them believe in magic again ;) My work with an international school and Apple enable me to achieve that.
Back home I have a comfortable home nestled in the by lanes of the heart of the city with easy access to all amenities a city can provide yet surrounded by greenery and the sound of birds chirping. I am moving to a new city so I’ll be requesting people to host me for the first time in my life :)
Although I am new to Couchsurfing, I have been hosting friends, acquaintances, researchers and work guests since years.
I always respond though sometimes work load is high and I respond a few days late. I’m looking for conversations, sharing of experiences, seeing the place through your eyes... If you’re looking to date and/or flirt please ignore my profile and host someone else.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love travelling and I enjoy hosting people. Since childhood I’ve had guests at home, sometimes for months at a time, enabling me to learn about their culture and their country without getting out of my living room. I’ve been blessed with love and support from friends and friend’s friends opening their homes and hearts for me while travelling so offering my couch is my way of paying it forward. Currently I am travelling and although I don't have a couch to share, I would love to share a conversation, a drink or an evening dancing salsa (have learnt the basics and loved it).
