I love to meet new people and learn new things. This January/February/March (2020) I am on tour around Europe. I will be travelling solo and hope to meet nice new people as I go to learn about each place I visit with someone who lives there. Feel free to come with me to my shows! I would say I’m a considerate person who is easy going. If you wanted a quiet guest I can be utterly silent and can also be very enthusiastic.
I love people and am fascinated by anyone’s way of life. Especially love to meet people who reinforce the idea that there is lots of kindness out there.
I hope we can mutually share an interest and maybe some stories and music! I look forward to meeting you!

(And obviously my home is open to anyone I meet along the way if one is visiting the uk)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've decided to leave home and see how far I can get with very little money.
