About Me

Hello! I'm from London, England. I’ve just finished at the university in Manchester and I’m now on the hunt for new experiences. Strange as it might seem I love travelling... I was lucky enough to go on some amazing holidays all over the world when I was a child and i think it's this that has fuelled my present love for the unknown. I probably have a bit of a silly sense of humour once you get to know me - I like to laugh what can I say. I also like people and places and music and food and all the other good stuff. Not to blow my own trumpet or anything but I am very easy going, take life as it comes with a few deep late night conversations along the way. If there's anything else you want to know give me a shout!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people, learn foreign languages and cultures.
Also to not give in to expensive hostels and hotels, the best friendships are free ;).

Interests

Music - love playing and listening to music, in bed, at live music nights, clubs and anywhere else! I've been teaching myself guitar for the past year or so. Football - Love playing it and watching it - Manchester United!!!! Literature - Love a good book and hope to one day write my own.
