I am fun, kind, considerate, thoughtful, interesting, intelligent, easy to speak to, like a beer or wine :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have quit my job as a menswear designer to explore south America for a year. I am very keen to meet new people, improve on my Spanish and integrate with the local culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recently completed the W trek (Torres del Paine) on my own in 4 days and added an extra 20k due to a broken bridge... and also two visits to the Torres (just to be sure). I got up at 4am and hiked through a pitch black wood up to the Torres with my head torch on, luckily no puma's around to attack me. That week was the most beautiful and enjoyable experience I have ever had.
