I've just graduated from Durham university in England where I did a bachelors in history and italian. I want to take some time after my studies to travel, have some amazing new experiences and meet open, like minded people. I love drawing and painting, dogs and good jokes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling and believe there is nothing so valuable you can learn away from home than from those you meet along the way. I'm on couchsurfing because there are few online places that trade in human experience rather than money.
