Most people would say I'm a pretty easy-going guy who's pretty easy to keep happy. Having said that, I like to be organised and don't like too much chaos. I also like to keep my things neat and tidy, and sometimes this drives my girlfriend nuts. I'm all about new experiences like seeing new places, eating different foods and making new friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I caught the travel bug at a young age and love exploring new places, experiencing new cultures, trying new foods and seeing different things. I've done a bit of traveling but don't ever think I'll say I've done enough. My girlfriend, Mel, and I are planning a 12 month trip through Europe and Central & South America in 2017. I'm generally a big advocate for avoiding the tourist traps, so I love meeting locals and seeing the city from their perspective. If Mel and I could make a handful of new friends and crash on a few couches along the way we know we'll have a fantastic year.

Interests

Aside from travel, I love all spots. Whether it's playing, watching or even talking sport, that's my biggest interest. Chocolate too....

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a fan of any music that has a good beat. Something you can tap your foot to or sing along with. I enjoy music most when it's acoustic, live and accompanied with a couple of beers or wines.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2014 I participated in a cricket tour of Pakistan.
