As well as Great Britain, I've lived in the Himalayas in Nepal, Cracow in Poland (hence my username), Madrid, San Sebastián in the Basque Country, Melilla in North Africa and Cuzco in Peru.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've said yes to everyone who has ever sent me a request when I've had a place, and I've hosted people who really needed somewhere despite the circumstances being rather difficult for me, so I hope that someone else will help me out sometime.

Interests

Hanging around watching the world go by; wandering around new places; wandering around old places; going to the cinema (literally thousands of times in my life); linguistics; despairing over Brexit
