About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is just to see and do as much as possible in life, to make the most of it! Right now that consists of completing the Mongol Rally and then moving to New Zealand.

ABOUT ME
My name is Chris, I grew up on a farm in the UK and qualified as a dentist in 2012. I spent two years living and working in Swaziland before having the adventure of a lifetime travelling from Cape Town to Cairo on public transport. The last 18 months in the Brecon Beacons, Wales, has been great but now I'm heading out on the Mongol Rally (a charity banger rally from the UK to Mongolia) before moving to New Zealand in October.

I'm pretty laid back and very easy going, love to experience new things and meet new people.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm just trying to do as much and see as much as possible, meeting cool people along the way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've always had positive experiences with couchsurfing and I've met so many interesting people. I hosted as often as possible in Swaziland and had a great time with the hosts I stayed with across Africa.

Interests

Anything active or outdoors I love. Climbing, swimming, hiking, running, surfing are all things I enjoy a lot. I also love a good book and enjoy spending time with friends, with good food and a drink or two.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling from Cape Town to Cairo on public transport, three months of pure adventure and mind-blowing experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to share travel experiences and just chat about life in general!

I'm easy going and I'll get involved with anything that's going on, otherwise I'm quite content to look after myself and explore on my own!
