I grew up in London but have spent time in other countries and plan to do more of this. I studied Law but am by no means a lawyer. I now work in sustainable transport, designing cycling and walking schemes in London. I love to make walking and cycling journeys wherever I go, I think it's the best way to experience a place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My housemates in Hungary were well acquainted with CS and after a great experience surfing in Slovakia I decided to join myself.
