***travelling until March, not in Berlin!***

Yes 25 year-old Scot currently laying down roots in Berlin. I feel lucky to have seen interesting places, and had many interesting conversations, but there are many more to be found!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really love travelling and meeting new people, and CS is a perfect combination of both! So far I have had some really great experiences as a couchsurfer in Russia, having stayed with people in Ekaterinburg, Irkutsk, Arkhangelsk, Crimea, St. Petersburg and Kazan. I like going to CS events too when I travel, it's a great way to meet new people in new places!

Interests

I spend my free time keeping busy by climbing, running, walking, cycling, hiking, socialising and going out. I can't say no to a vodka and a dance. I love learning about different cultures, whether it be through language, art, food or music. I really love being outdoors; my favourite days are spent in the hills!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once took a 5-seater plane to an island off the southern coast of Iceland and climbed up a volcano. It was an amazing and unforgettable experience.
