CURRENT MISSION

Don't die.

ABOUT ME

I find the process of filling this part in quite discomforting - I shall be brief. I'm a 22 year old Scottish student; based in Edinburgh and studying social anthropology. I think couchsurfing and other such organisations are fantastic, and a genuine route to a more socially engaged, cohesive society. I very much look forward to meeting as many like (and unlike) minds as I can

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in a flat in central Edinburgh, with 4 others. We can host often, but with a wide circle of friends our flat is usually pretty full as it is.

Music, Movies, and Books

Recent favourites include Young Fathers, Howl and Chronicle of a Death Foretold. Older favourites include Led Zeppelin, A Tribe Called Quest, 12 Angry Men and To Kill A Mockingbird.

That said, there will always be special places in my heart for Frightened Rabbit and Beerfest.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The sun rising over the Negev desert one morning as I sat on a small hill and watched. I felt like I was the only person on the planet.

Teach, Learn, Share

Everyday is a school day, especially when you are travelling. I feel that through sharing our homes, food, experiences and thoughts we can all teach other something valuable everyday. I hope to do so.
