About Me

25 year old from near Leicester, UK who just left my job as an Engineer to go on a year of travelling! Currently on an interail trip around Portugal, Spain, France!

Fairly new to couch surfing but have had a great experience already staying with a host in Jakarta, Indonesia who could get us into all the fancy hotel rooftop bars!

Interests

Sailing - this summer I'm off to Maine, USA to teach dinghy sailing at a summer camp! ⛵

Hiking - love a multi day hiking trip. Feel an almost constant urge to climb up the highest peak in sight! ⛰️

Ultramarathon running - I went at bit crazy in lockdown (didn't we all) and got into running really far 🤪 have completed 3 races now. The most amazing of which was Ultra X Jordan where we ran 250km across a desert for 5 days 🐪

Open water swimming - love a good splash around in any good looking body of water, no matter how cold! Look out for me bobbing on the waves 🏊

What I Can Share with Hosts

Always up for drinks, chats and just hanging out:)
One place I stayed like I helped the guy chainsaw down a load of trees, another place spent an afternoon digging up bamboo roots... so my labour is always available for use! 🪚
