About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet amazing people whilst traveling.

ABOUT ME

Hello! I believe the best way to describe myself is as an adventurer, who is always looking to learn/experience something completely different and new, whether it be a new sport or learning about a new culture. For me "every days a school day" and I want to experience as much as humanly possible.

I really love meeting interesting fun people, it's the best thing about travelling.

PHILOSOPHY

Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that is true strength.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In anyway possible.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have really enjoyed every time I have surfed. It is definitely better than being a typical tourist and staying in hotels. This way I have been able to see things most tourists don't. It is also a great way of getting to know local people and their culture.

Interests

I'm into a lot of things and want to try more but here are the main things I'm into.

Triathlon is my main sport and something I am becoming more and more passionate about. Arguably the most challenging and demanding sport there is and it is for that reason I love it.

I also love to play squash when I have the time. A wicked sport that everyone should give a go.

Scuba diving is my newest venture which I have only recently been introduced to and it is something I really want to carry on with.

Obviously, I am also really into travelling and meeting new people. I'm pretty sure I have mentioned this already so I wont go on about it again.
