I'm from the UK and moved to the US in 2014 to go to graduate school in Chicago. Since graduating, I've worked in academic administration at a university in the city. Before then I lived for two years in Hong Kong, China, where I worked as an English teacher. I'm now doing a PhD at Cornell.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I took the trans-siberian railway (and a lot of other trains, megabuses and a boat) from Hong Kong across China, Mongolia, Russia and Europe back to the UK in Winter 2013-14.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've had some great couch surfing experiences in MN, WI, SD, CO, NE, NY, OH and others, and I'd love to share my experiences (and beers!) with guests in Ithaca or with new hosts on my travels.
