About Me

I’m a final year student at Bristol University. I love travel and have done several long trips abroad in the past few years, most recently to China.

I’ve used couchsurfing a fair bit during these trips and now I'm looking forward to welcoming any like-minded travellers to the area and showing people round.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been on Couchsurfing for a few years now and through it have met some incredible people and shared some really cool trips and experiences. Couchsurfing has been a great tool for me whilst travelling, and now I would love to host and show people round Bristol.

Interests

I love to travel (obviously), play football, DJ, cook (sometimes), play snooker & pool, and just generally spend time enjoying little things.

I love going out clubbing - Bristol has sick nightlife - but also enjoy a chilled night in too.

I also like being outdoors, hiking etc. I'm a decent skiier :)

Finally big into music, Bristol’s music scene is unreal.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love electronic music, dnb and techno especially, (that’s why I love living in Bristol haha) and DJ - played in a couple of clubs here (I mainly mix dnb). Also play the trumpet and enjoy jazz, especially live.

Can get into most films.

Reading-wise, I'm into thrillers and crime novels. Linwood Barclay is my favourite author.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Crawling through the pyramids of Cairo
Skydiving over the ocean in Australia
Hiking the Routeburn track in New Zealand
Climbing inside the crater of an active Volcano
Travelling independently for the first time, aged 14, in Germany
Playing football on the best beach on the planet, in the Whitsunday Islands
Jumped all three of the Queenstown Bungee's and the world's largest swing in new Zealand
White-water rafting over a 7m waterfall, the largest commercially rafted waterfall in the
world
Climbed an abandoned skyscraper in Bangkok (not the ghost tower, a different one)
Motorbiked around Cat Ba Island, Vietnam

And much more!

Teach, Learn, Share

Always happy to learn more about other people’s interests and try new things!

If you're a big pool player who has never played snooker, then I can take you to the snooker place for a game.

Would love to have a mix with any other DJ’s!
