About Me

I am soon to embark on a 8-12 month trip across South, Central and North America.

I have travelled a fair bit across, Europe, India and South East Asia. During this time I learnt that the best part of travelling was the incredible people you meet.
I'm hoping to get the most out of my experience by making new friends on Couchsurfing.com.

PHILOSOPHY

Gathering and pursing new adventures, visiting new places, meeting new people are key to enjoying life. To widen my horizons and to feel at home anywhere in the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Its great to meet new people, visit new places and learn more abou the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been a member for a while but the next few months will be the first time I have surfed myself. I think its a wonderful way of travelling and to fully experience new places and cultures.

Interests

Arts, outdoor sports, trekking, volunteering and finding out more about new cultures.

For the past year I have been bouldering and climbing and undertaking obstacle races such as Tough Mudder.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have volunteered and lived in South America, Peru with Christian Aid. I lived with a host family in a shanty town while working to build new homes and teach English to the local communities. While there I visited the Nasca Lines, trekked though the amazon, climbed the Andes and even took a dip in a glacier lake.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking anyone?

I love to meet new people and get to know someone new. Expect good energy and positivity.
