About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a sociable guy who loves adventures, travel and the outdoors. I work as a research geologist for the British Antarctic Survey, and enjoy the opportunity to conduct fieldwork there to unravel the history of this mysterious frozen continent.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy yourself, even when things are looking a bit pear shaped!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just getting started, but looking forward to many more in the future!

Interests

I enjoy many outdoor sports, particularly caving, walking climbing and cycling, and love travel and the challenges it brings (What's life without a few funny scrapes!), seeing new places and meeting new people.
