I am a research scientist in the United Kingdom - I love travelling and exploring different cultures and local food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will be traveling to Brazil and would like to be hosted in the cities I am visiting. I think it would be a great way to learn about the culture and meet new friends whilst traveling. I am also open to hosting people when I get back from my travels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelled to India and did some volunteering - didn't know what to expect and absolutely enjoyed meeting people, the culture and travelling to different parts of the country.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach - English; I am fluent in English so I can help you lean and practice speaking English
Learn - I want to learn different cultures from locals i.e. including history, art, food and philosophy
Share - We can share our interests and traveling experiences

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share English way of living and culture - I have lived in different places across the UK so have a lot of experience about different regions. I can also share my love of music - I am always on the look out for new artists and would like to tell you about artists I think are great. Same thing goes for books and philosophy.
