Chilled, easy going and friends with everyone. I quit my job in London to explore other countries for a year. While I'm in Latin America, I'm taking Spanish lessons to help communicate with the locals. Finding it tough, but I've learnt so much.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To help my Spanish and get a better understanding of the places I visit. The cultures, way of life and local knowledge. It's so much better to hear a local's perspective than a tour guide.

Interests

Sport, in particular, football and rugby. Love to see live bands. Learning from others. Art and design. Photography.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
My music collection is very eclectic. Mixed across genres, old and new. Most of my iTunes is made up of lots of rap and hip hop, especially B.I.G, jay z, Nas, Odd Future. A lot of rock, especially Queens of the Stone Age, red hot chili peppers and rage against the machine. Also a healthy dose of old soul, like Otis redding and Ray Charles. I try to go to lots of gigs and festivals and I've seen Foals over 10 times.

Movies:
Goodfellas, the departed, anchorman

Tv:
Breaking bad, the wire, sopranos, band of brothers, game of thrones, 30 rock

Books:
Fear and loathing in Las Vegas, don Quixote, Money, huckleberry Finn

What I Can Share with Hosts
