Overview
About Me
My friends say I'm open, curious, fun-loving & caring... I hope they're not blind.
Happiness is what it's all about! I think our world is beautiful and amazing and just want to go out and enjoy it as much as I can, while I can, sharing experiences with other people!
I study in Leeds during most of the year and then work at a hospital in Cambridge or travel whenever I get holidays.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
For the last 2 years I've been to local CS meetings at various pubs in my hometown which has been great fun.
I also used couch-surfing to meet locals and other travellers whilst in Peru last summer.
My experience of it so far has been very positive! When I eventually live in my own house I would love to host couch-surfers but for the moment this isn't possible unless during holiday periods.
