I'm an active outdoor enthusiast with a love of travel and culture. I enjoy meeting new people and sharing great experiences, and I can never deny a good opportunity for adventure. I'm also a bit of a nerd, with a constant desire to learn new things, and as a result I know my home town really well, so if you're looking for a tour guide get in touch.
I just graduated university, studying English Literature and Creative Writing, and I am now studying a Masters whilst trying to finish my novel.
I'm an easy going guy but I usually keep myself pretty busy, so if you're wanting to hang out get in touch the day before. I'm opened minded, and I'm always looking for the best in people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people and network with others across the globe. It's nice to feel connected, and it's great getting to know other cultures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I watched the sun set on an island just off the coast of Marseilles, then continued to do some night swimming with the guys I had met at the hostel.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm good conversation, and I love to discuss a range of intellectual topics. I would happily help around practically inside or outside the house, and if you like I'll even write you a decent story.
