About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn how to live and get what I want from life.

ABOUT ME

Massive procrastinator. Always looking for adventure and to meet someone new. I'm easy going, open minded and frequently silly. I try to be creative (although i'm a maths graduate) and I love the world. I am now teaching, which turns out to be a brilliantly creative and loving career.

PHILOSOPHY

work in progress..

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Lived in the house of couch surfing in brum last year, where we hosted a rabble of internationals. It was totally brilliant, but I've had to postpone all that with my first teaching year. I'm just sooo tired!
Gonna be doing some surfing of my own again soon enough;

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed in germany for the world cup. Met some awesome people and have been excited about the site ever since.
Last year hosted everyone we could in our big old CS-house in birmingham, which is sadly no more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am in constant awe of peoples' generosity on my travels, from random couchsurfing to free food/clothes/books/film/music events in the punk squats of amsterdam.

Sitting under a mango tree with kids chasing pigs around me by a piranha infested river in a village in the middle of the jungle. Felt like Macondo from 100 years of solitude and Specter from Big Fish all at once.

Driving to Machu Picchu.

Wild camping in the Guajira dessert.

Cycling across Germany.

But then I find everything amazing..

Countries I have been

Teach, Learn, Share

Can play/teach guitar. I'm a maths teacher so I guess that means I could teach maths. Would like to practice my spanish.
