ABOUT ME

Well, I think I'm pretty laid back, although am trying to focus more on being productive. Graduated from Duncan of Jordanstone (the art school in Dundee) in Graphic Design and now working as a graphic designer in Glasgow :D

I want to travel and experience the world, live in Tokyo, explore South America, travel South East Asia and learn Japanese/Spanish/Tagalog.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have Couchsurfed in L.A. which was my first experience. Crashed with three people and couldn't have asked for better hosts. After that was kinda hooked. Have also stayed a couple of places in N.Z., Vienna and Amsterdam which was good.

Interests
