About Me

Adventure seeking ex-lawyer! Left my London life and career behind to see more of the world and meet new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling is fun but the most important part for me is meeting interesting people and sharing new experiences. I've heard other travellers report great couchsurfing experiences so thought I'd give it a try.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going to Creamfields festival in Beunos Aires...after meeting a guy in the Bolivian Amazon who arranged for us to get free tickets a month earlier!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some of my recipes - I'm not a chef but can rustle up a mean poached egg! If you've ever been interested in DJing or producing electronic music then I can share some tips.
Learn: I'm always interested in learning new things to cook and hearing new music.
Share: discovering local beers and sharing would be perfect.
