About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get through my PhD

ABOUT ME

I used Couchsurfing when I moved to Grenoble on Erasmus, and through it met some really lovely people. Now its time for me to repay the favour :)

Aussi, j'aimerais parler francais de temps en temps

PHILOSOPHY

Couchsurfing is a truly rare example of positive human behaviour.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have an air mattress that sleeps two people. I have a very small couch too, but from the few times I've fallen asleep on it I wouldn't recommend it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It was really excellent, so many people went out of their way to help me get settled, I'd like to repay the favour where possible

Interests

Adventures :) the more unplanned the better

  • singing
  • juggling
  • study abroad

Music, Movies, and Books

Love movies, love music, love books. Had an epiphany listening to The Bends for the first time whilst reading One Hundred Years of Solitude.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen Muse at Benicassim, it was so amazing to have 10,000 people singing along, especially the high bits when you heard 5,000 people's voices breaking....

Teach, Learn, Share

I can sort of juggle (I know its a rubbish skill). I have made plenty of mistakes you can learn from, does that count?

Countries I’ve Visited

France, Spain, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

United Kingdom
