Overview
About Me
In September 2012 I bought a backpack, stuffed it with whatever I could, moved everything else I owned into a storage unit in Salford, and headed west. Supposedly a 6 week trip, it's still ongoing more than 11 years later, with only the occasional few weeks break in either London, Delhi, or Melbourne (officially homes these days)...
CORONA UPDATE. After 3 months of Thailand lock down in 2020, I'm back on the road, travelling wherever possible, sensibly and safely. I follow all local guidelines where I am, and I'm also triple vaccinated 💉💉💉
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet people even more interesting than those you'll meet in a hostel
Interests
Travel (duh!), architecture, photography, food (Italian, Indian, Thai), languages, silly videos
- architecture
- languages
- overlanding
Music, Movies, and Books
The music I kept overhearing in the last few countries I've been in...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I'm not American so I don't do 'amazing' things. I did go to North Korea though, which ppl think is pretty awesome, and I've effectively created a Guinness world record by crossing the entirety of Africa using only local public transport... I'm quite proud of that too...

What I Can Share with Hosts
While I'm in India, as long as I'm not at work I'm happy to hang out and explore around, in Delhi and elsewhere in the country!
I'm never really home, so instead of reciprocal hosting I can offer endless stories and travel tips to pretty much anywhere. Thinking of travelling any time soon? Try me! :-)
