Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am interested in learning and sharing time with local residents while I travel. I lived in a community house for the last 5 years and we hosted a number of couch surfers. The experience was awesome! Now, I am keen to stay with others in my travels and explore the social and physical landscape that surrounds me.

Interests

I work outside and care deeply about the environments that surround and include people. This passion usually leads me on trips with an outdoor nature. When I visit towns my priority is to see the area and the natural beauty as well as the social landscape.

I am interested in how media can shape minds and share ideas, and have worked as a publisher/ editor for a student paper throughout my time at university. I have published a number of small articles at different capacities and am keen on sharing ideas to create positive change.
