Hi there! I'll be in Western Africa from 5th-20th January and would love to meet up with fellow travellers to share stories and make friends over a cheeky drink or two! I'm big into hiking, music, and staying busy with new activities!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've best enjoyed visiting foreign countries when staying with locals - they know the hidden gems tourists generally overlook!

Interests

Learning the Russian language - on my 11th novel.
Homebrewed at least 20 beers over the last couple years.
Been drumming to metal music for 11 years - got a few gigs lined up.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Welsh 3000s with no training - 15 mountain peaks in Wales above 3000ft in under 24h, 55km!
Difficult for me anyway :)

Tidy, respectful, a few drinks or a meal in return for your hospitality.
