ABOUT ME

-Currently Traveling South America from March-June, Starting in Patagonia in southern Chile then heading north through Santiago and Valparaiso, then to Bolivia & Peru. I'm up for meeting and travelling with others during this time!-

I'm David, Just finished uni in Glasgow, Scotland last summer, and now living & working in London. I love home but take every chance to escape, studying in Canada for a year and spending a summer in India

I love to spend time outdoors, the mountains of Scotland are my favourite place in the world. World politics really interest me, and I love to learn the views on common issues with people from different cultures.

International Development is one of my passions, having spent time in India & Africa working for a few different charities. I think the most important qualities in people are generosity and compassion.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've surfed a few times in Vancouver, Seattle, Portland, Berlin and hosted a few times in Scotland. I've had a mixed bag of... interesting.. experiences so have a lot of advice for new couchsurfers. Or good stories to share for others.

兴趣

I love sport like football and tennis, cycling, swimming, hiking. I know my way around a pool table. My favourite place is in the rural Highlands of Scotland, climbing mountains and adventuring.
I like a good party, a shitty pub quiz, a few quiet beers (or whiskies). I'm pretty engaged in politics here in the UK and will be fascinated to learn about your country.

音乐、电影和书籍

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Living in India for 3 months was the most intense and incredible experience of my life, hunting for waterfalls in the Himalayan mountains.

教，学，和分享

I love the idea of couchsurfing because it's more than just using someone as a hostel, you can stay with them for a day or more and learn so much about them and their countries, ripping stereotypes and misconceptions apart. I hopefully get a chance to take full advantage of it!
