About Me

Hello, world!
I'm currently living in Almeria and teaching English. My personal ambition, though, is to learn as much Spanish as possible and really just enjoy the next few months because in July I will be returning to Scotland to start my career as a lawyer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet interesting people, practice my Spanish and have a fun, authentic experience in the places that I visit.

Music, Movies, and Books

Like most people, my taste in music varies a lot. It depends on the mood of the day. I like hip hop, soul, electronic, classic rock, folk...anything really.

Books: again, this varies from non-fiction (philosophy, history, journalism) to different types of fiction (at the moment, mainly American literature like Corman McCarthy and Ernest Hemingway).

Movies: too many to list but my favourite director is Stanley Kubrick.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Worked for a civil rights law firm in New York City.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation in not-so-good Spanish (and much better English) and a few laughs.
