About Me

Im always thinking about is my next adventure. There's so much to see out there, and i'd like to see as much as i possibly can! I love to immerse myself in the culture and vibe of every place i go to.

I'm an osteopath and I try to take my work where I travel. So far I've been fortunate enough to work in the French alps, Australia and Japan, and now I am traveling through Hawaii to Canada where ill be based for a couple of years.

PHILOSOPHY

"where theres a will, theres a way"
"You only regret the things you dont do, not the things you do do"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I have only had the pleasure of surfing. Mainly because I'm always travelling i guess! Hopefully i'm contributing to the wonderful world of CSing by showing it's safe, interesting and a beautiful way of meeting friends all over the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The few couchsurfing experiences i have had have been fantastic. Brilliant people in brilliant places. I learn something new with every person i meet and being welcomed into a strangers home is just a beautiful thing.

Interests

Nature, conservation, skiing, snowboarding, climbing, kayaking, sailing, photography (on a very amateur level!), traveling (of course!), chatting (hate awkward silences!) and eating.

Music, Movies, and Books

So many of my friends cant understand this as they love to get lost in another world when reading a book; but i tend only to read non-fiction books. I like to learn from the books I read or be inspired by a true story. The world is exciting enough and i'd rather go out and live an amazing adventure then read about a fictional one.

When it comes to movies I'm a sucker for anything that makes me smile or laugh!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Giving a huge elephant a coconut husk scrub down in a river in southern India with some locals. Magical.

26hr train ride in general class in India.

Hitchhiked from central London to Morocco with no money to prove a point to a friend.

Teach, Learn, Share

Id like to learn to surf at some point! If the opportunity arises I'd be happy to teach you to ski or board!

With every new person you meet, there's always something taken from that experience.
