About Me

I'm an open minded person looking for new things to enjoy. CS is just the best way to get into the life of a city without falling into tourist crap. I've done a fair bit more couchsurfing than my profile would imply as I've often travelled with partners. I won't treat your place like a hostel - I'm there to hang out and share good times.

I'm no stranger to nightlife - drinks and chats, live music and parties all sit well with me. But I've definitely chilled out a lot. I'm quite financially reserved by necessity (like a lot of couchsurfers I'm sure) and daytime I like chill pretty places like parks and beaches where I can sit and read or study Spanish but I'm always keen to check out any odd or unique spots or events in the cities I visit - what's your favourite thing to do that not many visitors would get around? The Duck walk in Memphis comes to mind...

Generally keen to hang out but don't need entertaining all the time. I'd be happy to help you out around the house to make up for the pad as well, seems fair

I also like food. Of course I'm on a budget but can easily be swayed into patronising your favourite eatery, if not you may be in danger of me cooking for you.

LBGTQ+, pet, 4/20 friendly :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What I've always loved about living in Brighton is being able to meet all kinds of new people from all over the world and show them the best the city has to offer. Now I'm looking for the universe to return the favour!!

I do love food and drink and want to know where the locals go for a good time in those regards. But if there's anything unusual or surreal that goes down in town I wanna see that too. The duck walk in Memphis comes to mind 😂

I'm usually on a mission to meet as many people as I can so I'm looking for where I can find the chillest, silliest people; if you're fun but chill and just a little silly then we're going to get along great :)

As for right now I've been backpacking/working-holidaying for years and I'm just trying to make the most of my return to Europe

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think the thing I'm most proud of is my black belt in Soo Bahk Do.

I had an incredible time Road tripping the South in the US living in the back of a truck

Scuba diving and snowboarding are new passions of mine I can't wait to get more of.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been learning Spanish and always keen for practise. I want to live in Mexico for a while so that's my motivator.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I think I have some good stories and recommendations from the places I've been and I'd love to hear yours because this is how I learn what I want to do next!
