About Me

CURRENT MISSION

see the world through different eyes! and live in the present!

ABOUT ME

I am an easy going 22 year old traveler, passionate about the outdoors, good books, good people and music! I study Civil Engineering at Newcastle University in England, one day I hope to use this to help communities in developing countries to benefit from sustainable energy.

I'm quite involved with Green/left politics at my University, I am always interested to hear other peoples views.

PHILOSOPHY

I think if you can do something good for someone then you are morally obliged to do it, without expecting any reward or congratulation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have couchsurfed in New Zealand, America, Canada and Germany. I gained so much from the experience, met incredible people to share stories with and party! I am now open to host at my house in the north west of England.

Interests

Road biking, tramping, camping, hitchhiking, love listening to and talking about music! Playing guitar, reading, meeting like minded people and travelling!

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: on the road, into the wild, high fidelity, birdsong, Robinson Crusoe, clockwork orange, 1984, the dharma bums,
Music: anything original! World/roots/folk/blues/electronic/rap. My favorite artist would have to be Bob Dylan, but there is a time and a place!

" There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society where none intrudes,
By the deep Sea, and music in its roar:
I love not Man the less, but Nature more,"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiking around New Zealand for 3 and a half months was pretty insane! Taking the Pacific Surfliner for 45 continuous hours from Seattle to San Diego. Ice Climbing and monitoring volume fluctuation of the Tunsbergdalsbreen Glacier in Norway. All the incredible people I met along the way and all the beatiful sunsets and sunrises, and the mountains and the rain!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to learn anything! If I think I can add anything I always try!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good vibes and humor!
