Overview
About Me
I'm a 24 year old Scot with a love for all things food, drink and travel related.
For the last 3 months I've been travelling around South America, next stop is LA, Fiji and then shall embark on a years working holiday visa in Australia - so maybe if we become friends you can hit me up in Melbourne some day soon.
Back at home, I was a bar and restuarant manager for Jamie Oliver. Through this i gained many passions including mixology, cooking and new restauarant openings around the globe.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Meeting new people, sharing experiences, shooting the breeze over a beer.
Interests
Food, all of the food! Any kind of pastry is my friend. Drink, especially alcoholic. From gin enthusiasts to craft beer - we'll get along. Football (Soccer to anyone across the pond). Golf, lots and lots of music. Just like having a good time really.

Varied taste in music and will give anything a try. Huge love for Radiohead and anything Thom Yorke touches. Oasis, Blur, Pulp, The verve and anything from that era. 60`s and 70`s rock n roll - Clapton, Stones, Beatles, Hendrix. Also a massive fan of house and techno, with artists like Derrick Carter et al from the Chicago Scene.
Anything by Irvine Welsh. Recently started delving into Bukowski - keen to visit his house in LA.
if you enjoy Jumanji and Home Alone 1 & 2, then we can be friends!
