About Me

I am an easy to get along with, considerate, fun person from london who now lives in Cornwall :)

I love nature, swimming, kickboxing, hitchiking, philosophical musings, and travelling.

PHILOSOPHY
everyone is equal, and should be treated as such
fill your life with experiences not things, have adventures, and talk about ideas
try to make the world a better place and help others

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet interesting, open minded people :)

Interests

Hiking, swimming, and climbing are some of my preferred ways to spend the time. I love art, music, literature and theatre (although I am unfortunately lacking in these creative skills myself). Also do quite like talking about politics and general broad theories of life, and participate in a lot of activism and volunteering - divestment movement from fossil fuels/against high rents/migrant and refugee rights/etc.
