About Me

Graduated from university and rekindling my love for travelling. Currently a freelance cycling instructor, musician, researcher, writer and training to become a bicycle mechanic.

Recently got back from a cycling tour of the west coast of Scotland, and really feeling the travel bug biting!

Interests

MUSIC
Currently playing piano in a few bands in London. I play mainly jazzy, funky stuff but i love all types and always happy to have suggestions thrown my way!

CYCLING
Becoming a but obsessed with cycling, but not in a competitive way, more enjoying the freedom and peace of mind it brings!

ENVIRONMENT
I've been recently researching for chinadialogue, a bilingual newspaper concerning environmental issues. This is something that is very close to my heart, particularly sustainable food sources.

TRAVELLING
Probably quite obvious from being a part of couch surfing, but love exploring other cultures.

LANGUAGES
After studying Chinese, I'm really interested in leading other languages, even if it's just a few words!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach me all that you know! Particularly languages, cooking and anything related to culture. If you know something about bicycle mechanics I'd love your help with that too!

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, China, France, Germany, Indonesia, Laos, Netherlands, Thailand, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In
