Overview
About Me
I've been living away from the U.K. since finishing university in 2014. I've lived in Lake Tahoe, California and Sydney, Australia with smaller trips to many other countries. Love the outdoors, I've been earning money in Aus by working at The North Face. Keen photographer and filmmaker, check out the YouTubes and the Instagrams below. I play guitar and am always down for a deep conversation, whether it be beneath the stars or in the middle of one of the worlds busiest cities. Live life on mountain time. Always down to cook.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm on couch surfing as I'll be hitchhiking New Zealand for a month and I want to see as much as possible! I also enjoy the social aspect of travelling, and that means getting to know the locals. What better way than sleeping on their couch?!

Music, Movies, and Books
My absolute favourite movie/book of all time is The Lord of the Rings. No surprises why I'm so excited for NZ! I also enjoy Tarantino, Wes Anderson, Scorsese etc. anything with Will Ferrel in and I've recently been binge watching Brooklyn 99. For music I'll listen to literally anything. Ed Sheeran's new album has been dominating my Spotify recently but I enjoy everything from tropical house to rap to piano concerto.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Fix a car in the middle of the Canadian wilderness with darkness creeping up on us. The middle of bear country.
