CURRENT MISSION

Meet loads of wicked people and have fun?

ABOUT ME

A few years back I decided to quit my job and go travelling for 2 years.

Best decision I've ever made.

I've been to over 30 countries now, immersed myself in many different cultures, met some really great friends and people. Travelling has changed me, I'm keen to see more of the world and meet some more awesome people!

PHILOSOPHY

Do you want to grab a beer?!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently a surfer as I haven't really had my own place yet to host. Although, I'm going to be living in Japan for a while and can't wait to host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been a member of couchsurfing for 2 years now, and still haven't experienced it yet. Everytime I have contacted someone, they have got back to me too late and I have left. So I'm really keen to get that couchsurfing experience and meet some cool people.
