I am a 28 year old Brit who loves the outdoors, adventures and mostly outdoor adventures. I like to meet interesting people which is why I love couchsurfing and my job as a doctor. This year has been spent travelling and volunteering as an expedition medic in Belize and Borneo before moving to NZ to work for a year in Hamilton as an emergency medicine doctor and explore the rest of the country in my free time. I have been Couchsurfing my way around Sydney to Adelaide and love the idea of strangers being kind to strangers as I am a big believer in karma and just generally being nice to each other.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from the area whilst I travel, I feel this will give me a more authentic experience than spending all my time on the backpacker trail.

I am most definitely NOT on couchsurfing for dating/hook ups or anything in between and am looking for safe places to stay.
