I grew up in England and spent the last 4-5 years in North America.

I love to write, play music and travel.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Once my girlfriend and I have our own place, we will start hosting again. At the moment, we're surfing.

I Couchsurfed in 2012 with my Australian friend, Lucy, during a road trip across all 10 Canadian provinces. I surfed extensively on a 2014 (mostly solo) road trip across the States, making plenty of new acquaintances and friends in the process (some of whom have since visited [and been hosted by] me elsewhere), as well as through Norway, Sweden and Denmark with a friend from home.
