Overview
About Me
Currently on a break from my career. I spent the first part of the year cycling and working for charity with my girlfriend.
I am now travelling through France, learning french before returning to work in September. I have a course booked for July in Montpellier.
We’ve couchsurfed in Southern Africa and loved the interactions with different people and cultures. We have loved being able to get away from the ‘usual’ tourist experiences and living like locals do.
Whilst I can't host at the moment, my girlfriend and I cannot wait to setup back in the UK and repay the incredible hospitality we’ve received, whilst on the road.
