About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet many different people from around the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm very passionate about visiting new places, its a challenge of mine to visit all the countries- or at least get to a decent total (my current aim is 100 before I turn 30, currently on 97 with 2 and a half years to spare!) as doing them all requires a lot of ££££££ I'm pretty realistic about it but now is the best time to do this as I'm still relatively young and don't have too many commitments yet !

I'm easy to get along with & always up for a laugh! I love to talk about different places, and swap travel stories.

PHILOSOPHY

To travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Had a profile for around 4 years and have had spells in 2014 and more recently where I've used it, attending a few weekly meetings in my hometown and a few when travelling. I have stayed with hosts around 6 or 7 times, twice this year so far,

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've done a mixture of meeting up with people in some of the cities I've visited and my own city, some really good experiences. I've stayed with people too.

Interests

Travelling is clearly my big interest. I like most Sports but mainly Football. I enjoy meeting new people from different countries & experiencing different cultures. I like to go out for drinks, especially in different cities.

I love getting into a good tv series, name it, the Wire, Sopranos, Prison Break, Lost, Oz, Game of Thrones, Walking dead, I've probably seen it or I'm currently seeing it.

I watch too many films, recently seen the Hostel series so thats definitely a reason to CS more if you've seen them aswell

Teach, Learn, Share

I know pretty much all the capital cities in the world
