Hi - I'm Freddie. I'm 22 years old, from England.

I come from a small town in the countryside, where I write and perform my own music, and run a family business. I've lived in several different places across the south of England, and managed to get a bit of travelling in over the last few years.
This year I've been making my way across the Americas, playing my music and soaking up the awesome countries. I'm very easy going and relaxed.
Heading to eastern europe and across Russia in November!

I'm keen on going to gigs, playing open mics, getting out and doing stuff...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet super cool like minded people who I can learn from

(and obviously to find couches/floors)...

Music, Movies, and Books

I'll listen to any music that has feel. At the moment I'm into raw blues/rock from the US and early English choral music, but I listen to absolutely anything and everything.

I saw a greek film recently called Dogtooth that really stuck with me for some reason (really weird though).
Basically anything with a good script and interesting character development. Loved that fairly newish Roman Polanski film 'Carnage'
Obviously True Detective too
I'm also one of those Lord of the Rings people

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Played at Glastonbury festival

Learnt to play the sitar in Varanasi

After I couldn't find a hostel in a tiny town in Colombia, I was welcomed in for 2 nights by a colombian lady, her 2 young daughters and their donkey.

Wrote a series of songs with rappers from a young offenders institute in the UK, in order to help them get back on their feet upon release
