About Me

**Key notes**
1) I am not currently in Dubai, but will be back mid-late-September.
2) I will not accept any requests that are not personalised/just say "hi, how are you"
3) If you have months of different hosts just in Dubai, again, I will not accept your request - CS is for travellers, not just for you to live for free.

With that, on to the more fun stuff! :)

ABOUT ME
I am 28 years old, working as a Strategy Consultant in Dubai. I'm passionate about global affairs, particularly issues surrounding education and international development. Outside of work, my interests are in sports/fitness, technology, travel, food, music, and more :)

TRAVEL
I have travelled relatively extensively, visiting 45+ countries around the world - including in Asia (south, south-east, east), Africa, Europe, Central/North America.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people, and staying with local people is usually the best way to experience a country.

Whilst I am not currently in the position to host others, I plan to once I have my own house.
