Hi all,
I grew up in a small village called Ewhurst near Guildford in the UK. I have lived and worked most of the last 12 years in marine conservation in Central America, in Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Belize. I am a fisheries specialist for The Nature Conservancy in Belize. I am an adventure junkie, anything outdoors. I am a scuba instructor, love hiking, motorcycle road trips, jumping into rivers etc. I am unable to accept guests at the moment but happy to offer local advice,and recommendations to those considering traveling in Belize.

PHILOSOPHY
Improvise, adapt, and overcome.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I did a lot of backpacking when I was younger so I know how useful it can be to talk to someone who knows a place by living there but that also has a travellers perspective.
