About Me

I'm a East London based artist travelling through Mexico for a couple of months looking to meet like minded people and learn about the culture and language.

I would describe myself as a mild mannered and respectful person with a very sociable nature. I love to make people laugh and often find many things in life to laugh at.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Whilst travelling I find the most enriching aspects are meeting people and understanding a place through its local residents.

As a solo traveller I am keen to avoid the pitfalls of hostel culture and tourist traps, preferring to spend time with people who are interested in sharing their knowledge and interests and curious about London life.
