About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To visit every football stadium on Earth

ABOUT ME

Studied French & German at King's College London, but now living in Germany and following my real passion which is football, working as an analyst for the Austrian and German leagues

PHILOSOPHY

You can achieve anything if you put your mind to it

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have only couchsurfed a few times but always positive experiences. Been a while since I last did it, need to get back into the habit of travelling again! I'm also willing to host for anyone who wants to stay in the Frankfurt area

Interests

Football & travelling, ideally combining the two

  • languages
  • travel
  • football

Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste is completely random - just anything with a catchy beat, and that can include some really stupid stuff

I like action films and thrillers. Don't watch too much TV but if I do then mostly comedy - British humour over American humour of course

When I find time to read then normally something educational - "Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman was particularly illuminating and I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to learn more about how the mind actually works - and why you should be careful about what your intuition tells you!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Following my local team Southend United to every away game during the 2011/12 season, and travelling the equivalent distance from the UK to Australia in the process

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help you with English and German (and French to an extent, though I have to say my level has gone a bit downhill since finishing uni!)

I'd happily refresh my French with any native speakers and am making very slow progress in learning Bulgarian too

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm quite shy but generally easy-going so hopefully you enjoy spending a bit of time with me
