I'm a PhD student, studying creative and critical writing, and it's something I love. I have a lifestyle I'm very happy with, spending my days reading and writing, and I really love the lack of structure (I sometimes take midweek weekends, can go off travelling and researching for weeks on end).

I've hosted before when I lived in London (a different account), and really enjoyed it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Decided to start hosting people again now I've settled into life here. I'm still a 'maybe' though, because I live in a house with three other people and don't want to disrupt their schedules. I am normally up for hanging out or going for a coffee. If you are ever coming up for creative writing stuff (i.e. you have an interview for the creative writing MA or something), I'll make sure you have a place to crash for the night, even if we're busy! I prefer having people to stay for a short period of time.
