About Me

I can't properly host anyone at the moment because I live in a college house with a few girls who aren't too keen on couchsurfing, but I joined the site to network and hopefully meet a few cool people who I might be able to visit in the future :) Hoping to spend a lot of my life travelling and living in different countries. I'm been very involved in scouts for over10 years and love the odd bit of adventure.

If someone is really stuck for a place to stay, send me a message and I could try to sort something out if I'm around.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To expand the possible places that I can travel to and hopefully meet cool people along the way. Not able to host properly yet because I don't have my own place but soon hopefully :)

Interests

I've always loved the outdoors and I am involved in the scouting movement at a all levels. I love travel, music, history and trying different foods. Really interested in other cultures and how they've evolved.
