About Me

Hi there, great to meet you!

I'm taking a few months off from work to travel around Colombia.

I love meeting new people and new experiences. I've done some travelling and favourite thing is the people I meet along the way and experiences I've shared with them.

My last trip to Latin America was part of a civil engineering project to El Salvador and Honduras, helping make buildings resist earthquakes. While out there meeting and staying with people in the local community was the best thing about an amazing trip.

Back in England, I work for a renewable energy company in London, helping to supply renewable energy to people across the country.

I also write about concerts, club nights and music festivals for an online music magazine. I've been lucky enough to cover a few this year and love to hear music event suggestions you have.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people! Coachsurfing lets me meet people who live and breath the local area rather than just visiting.

Tambien quieres mejorar mi nivel de espanol! He estudiado en mi universidad pero no tengo mucho tiempo para practicar.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite type of music is electronic, a lot of house and techno. But I'm open to pretty much anything and have recently gotten more into jazz. Send me an album and I'll give it a listen.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycled from a coastal city (Bristol) 52 miles into the mountains in one day. It was very long, very tiring and absolutely amazing.

I didn't know I could do something like that physically before and now am very keen to keep pushing myself. Physically, mentally whatever.
