I am a student at Sheffield university and I am backpacking Europe this summer, doing a cycling holiday in Finland as well as part of the Camino de Santiago trail and a festival in Portugal. I love travelling and doing outdoor activities such as hiking, climbing, and cycling I also enjoy swimming and photography. I am quite new to coach surfing but am very excited to meet new people and have new adventures. I'm smiley, open-minded and easy going and hope that you will enjoy my stay as much as I do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have found that the best parts of travelling are when you meet new people and so I'd love to meet exciting people and experience their culture through CS.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Swimming lessons - I'm a qualified swimming teacher and happy to share his expertise (he taught Han to swim!)

Casual language lessons - I have experience of teaching English and would be happy to be practiced upon by anyone trying to improve their english

Food - I love cooking and (most of the time) I make really yummy food which I would love to share with my host.I would also like to learn how to make food from other countries if hosts wanted to teach me.

Conversation - I like meeting new people and exchanging stories and opinions. If you are a host that also enjoys this, I would like to spend time getting to know you. However, if you just want to lend your sofa then thats perfect too!
