I'm 24 years old, and one way or another Edinburgh has been a part of my life for the last six years. After being born and growing up in Macclesfield, I moved up to Edinburgh to study History, and also did lots of acting in student theatre. I'm still not entirely sure what I want to do with life, but right now I'm a Cycling Development Officer with Cycling UK, and I love it - I'm a keen utility/urban cyclist.

Any host ought to know that I like mornings, am easygoing, affable, vegetarian, and can sleep pretty much anywhere.

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

There's no denying that couchsurfing is an affordable accommodation choice when travelling, but I also really value the opportunity to encounter and learn about a place not just from being spat out of a hotel room and wandering around but by meeting with a local.

Muzyka, filmy i książki

My favourite band is Radiohead. I'm into almost anything played on BBC6music. Also a huge fan of Pulp, Bjork, and anything that came out of Manchester in the late 80s and early 90s.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

I've written and performed my own show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Czym mogę się podzielić z gospodarzami

I cook a really lovely stew and potato gratin.

I also have some basic cycle mechanic skills if you need something like a tyre fixing or gears/brakes adjusting.

I will perform some poetry for you. If you don't like mine, I will read to you from a poet of your choice!
