About Me

I'm on a long-term travel adventure, and have been on the road since September 2015 :)

Currently hitchhiking around Japan with my best friend Amy (who is also from the UK)!! We travel light and on a shoestring, and are always keen to explore like a local!!

We're friendly, easy going and really laid back. We are both very open minded and love to try new things, see new places, meet new people, hike new hikes and eat new foods!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy learning about other ways of life and discovering new cultures. Couchsurfing is a great way to engage with the unique customs and traditions of a country - and of course meet likeminded people and make new friendships all over the world.

Interests

Film photography, camping and exploring nature, reading Murakami, music, left politics, seeing as much of the world as I can, anti-consumerist and low impact living, backgammon, advocating for equality, trying new (vegan) foods, petting every dog I see...
