About Me

My two favourite things are to travel and to meet new people. I had an incredible trip couchsurfing around the USA in 2010. I now live in London but try to escape the UK and see the world whenever I can.

I love: parties, great conversation, amazing food, attempting to cook amazing food, spontaneity, hours watching football on TV, book shops, sleeping in, staying up late, spending money on stuff I probably don't need, road trips, exploring new places, photography, discovering new bands, going to gigs, people watching and laughing (loudly).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I can safely say this website has been a revelation. I have met the most amazing people, seen things I would never have normally seen, and have had so many fun experiences. I love it.

Interests

Travelling to new places, seeing new things, and meeting new people.

And photography...I'm very rarely without my camera wherever I go.

Huge music fan, I love going to gigs and festivals whenever I can. Some favourite artists: Radiohead, Foo Fighters, Bonobo, The Beatles, Incubus, Muse, Deadmau5, Bloc Party, Digitalism, Audioslave, Prodigy, Interpol, The xx, MGMT, Oasis, Kings of Leon, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Queens of the Stone Age, Arcade Fire, The Strokes, Death Cab for Cutie, Kasabian, Gaslight Anthem, Broken Bells...and a lot lot more.

I'm trying to read a book every 2 weeks this year, so far I'm falling behind, but have read A Man's Search for Meaning, Homo Deus, and Anthem so far this year.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

CouchSurfing across the USA for two months was an incredible experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I absolutely love photography and would be more than happy to show you how to get the most out of your camera, and take good shots of just about anything. Anyone can be a great photographer with an understanding of a few basic concepts.
