Hi, my names Alex, i'm 22 and I'm looking to travel more and experience more of the local culture rather than the expensive-touristic travels that many of us get sucked into these days.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoyed travelling in a different way to standard tourists. By allowing your experience to be shaped by somebody who lives in the city, I feel you're getting the best experience possible.

Interests

I enjoy travelling and I'm currently studying to become an English teacher so I can travel and teach abroad :)

I have found a love for hikes and finding out the culture of places. We often forget that there is a lot to learn around the world!

• music
• hiking
• sports
• soccer
• lacrosse
• teaching

Music, Movies, and Books

Generally, I like everything.

Coldplay/Oasis are my favourite bands, but I love techno.

The Harry potter books are awesome, you also cannot underestimate the book 'Fast food nation's

Movies.. A good movie is a good movie

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did a 900km walk called the Camino De Santiago. That was pretty special
