About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live. Laugh. Learn. Love

ABOUT ME

After finishing my degree and trying to be a scientist I went travelling to find out what I really enjoyed and what I should do in the future. I have done at lots of different jobs since then including building and teaching but I still can't settle into anything so I just stumble on, enjoying life as much as possible while I can. I try to make the most of now and hope everything works out alright.
I've travelled a lot and I now know it's not about where you go or what you see, but who you meet. The best times I've had are made by the exceptional people I've met along the way. With that in mind I try and get out there and experience as much as I can. For me life is one big opportunity, a chance to do everything and anything that the world has to offer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I'm at home I'll host when I can, offer advice for my city, and more importantly, organise a place to have a beer/local food with travellers. When I surf and hang out with CSers, I'll do what I can to bring something new to the table.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed with many Trinbagonians, who have all been incredible, and also met for drinks with groups of CSers just to have fun, chat, learn more about the area etc. I've also been using a website that hooks up eager workers to hosts that offer free stay. I've had some of the best experiences of my life and have learnt so much along the way.
