I'm taking the opportunity life has thrown me and am gonna go traveling until all my money runs out then go back to reality hopefully with a head full of great memories. So far this has seen me go to India, the majority of South America, ride a comedy sized motorcycle from England to kiev and drive a Fiat panda from England to Mongolia and back again. Currently starting my 1 year work visa in Oz.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
