About Me

I'm a huge fan of Couchsurfing! Having done a load of Couchsurfing in India and Nepal, I've met a tonne of great people who made travelling even more enjoyable. Now that I'm working and studying in the UK, I don't get to travel as much, but still make time for it when I can!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a great way to meet interesting, local people. Whether it's hosting, surfing or going to a meet up, it's a brilliant way of getting to know the area and the people!

Interests

I'm really into music, playing drums and guitar. I like to keep fit; I swim a lot and go to the gym regularly, as well as running, playing tennis and football. I work as a Youth Pastor so that always sees me doing a huge host of interesting and enjoyable things! I also like to read as much as I can!

Music, Movies, and Books

My taste in music and movies is really varied! I love films with a decent storyline, particularly real life and biographical movies. I read all types of biographical and academic books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Crossed the highest navigable pass in the world; Thorung La in Nepal!
Driven a car on the streets of Delhi.
Kayaked from the west coast to the east coast of Scotland.

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Greece, India, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Kosovo, Monaco, Nepal, Spain, Switzerland, Tunisia, United Kingdom, Vatican City State

Countries I’ve Lived In
