About Me

Hello!

I'm a student making my way through Europe for a few weeks, any help, hospitality or company would be greatly appreciated :) first time CSer!

I'm currently studying English Literature in Birmingham (UK) and my other passion is music (i play guitar and some piano) so please feel free to chat to me about books and music!

My favourite thing to do is sitting down and relaxing with good conversation and interesting people. My main priority is to respect your home, it is a wonderful thing that hosts do and I would be lost without you.

Music and literature are my passions :)

I love discovering cities and getting lost in them. I also love museums and galleries.

I am a very independent traveller, if you host me please do not feel pressured to be overly helpful. Obviously any help would be appreciated however, after all who else nows a place like the locals!

It takes guts to be gentle and kind..."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm mainly looking for places to stay, and people who can really help me make the most out of my trip. I like doing some of the touristy stuff, but ideally I'd like to really discover the places I'm visiting and get to know what places local people like to go to. If you can help that'd be greatly appreciated.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach guitar part time, and I love learning other languages!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love it when people share books they've read with me or music they like, so i'd love to share that with you.

I see so many people offering to cook for their hosts but for your own safety I shouldn't be allowed near an oven! If you have an instrument I will try to write you a funny song :D maybe a poem if I'm feeling it, but the things I value most are good company which hopefully I can offer.
