Overview
About Me
I'm a 25 year old newly-qualified doctor and am in the midst of a year out between university and work. I'm hoping to hop around Europe for a little while in the summer on my bicycle and would love to do some couchsurfing along the way...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Travel with a difference. Cliche stuff...but to meet new people, exchange ideas, have fun.
Interests
Food, football, documentaries, cameras and Science. I am passionate about food and this past year started a blog and supper club with a good friend of mine. We host monthly dinners at our house for paying guests and do 5 courses and 5 wines. It's been an awesome experience. Football is my sport, Chelsea my team.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music - I like a lot of things...from electronic music to east-African gospel and 90's hip hop. To name a few: The War on Drugs, The XX, John Talabot, Future Islands, Hot Chip, Radiohead.
Film - any documentary, Tarantino, Home Alone 2.
Books - anything by Martin Amis, George Orwell, Sebastian Faulks...non-fiction stuff.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Spent a week in Rwanda and Tanzania with an East African pop singer, doing radio interviews and meeting music producers. Only the sort of thing that happens when you travel alone from time to time!
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach....medical things, food stuff! I've been a private tutor for a year if you're age 8 maths or english grammar needs a boost then I'm your man.
Happy to learn anything, although my Spanish could certainly do with brushing up...
What I Can Share with Hosts
A sense of humour, cooking, stories.
