Medical student at UCL, livin in Bethnal Green, East London. Day to day? Stickin needles in people, and tryin to dodge the hipsters while gentrifying the English grit of this beautiful urban enclave as little as middle-class possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because London is the centre of the universe, and everyone should dig it.
