Hey! I am from Portsmouth, England. I love to be by the beach, living in Portsmouth means I have a great beach right on my doorstep. I have one month left in my house before I am couch surfing, so I want to offer my sofa to those that may need to be close to the sea this summer too.

I work as an account manager for a creative agency, I also like to keep busy in my spare time as a videographer and presenter. I am TEFL certified so if anyone wants English Language lessons, please ask :)

I enjoy a good series or film and now that it is summer I try to get out of the house as much as possible to see friends and attend events.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people, help others and vicariously live through travelers before I up sticks and travel myself later in the year.

I would be happy to spend time with you, we can go check out all the great things that Portsmouth and Southsea have to offer... or if you would prefer to be left to your own devices, then I am happy with that too :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a big film and series fan, you will often catch me watching a crime documentary or goofy cartoon.

I love music in general, I tend to like some of the oldies like rolling stones. I am currently reading a book called "THIS IS GOING TO HURT" about a drs experiences training and working for the NHS.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In my 3rd year at university I had 3 jobs, one role being a presenter and producer for a live TV show, broadcasting live every evening to the south cost. Every day I only had about 4 hours sleep because of this, not quite sure how I stayed sane enough to finish with a 1st class hons degree (bragging rights).

I have traveled intermittently, my most recent venture was on a youth exchange in Georgia (not the state in America), the course was on the topic of culture and identity.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a TEFL /TESOL teacher, so I am able to provide a lesson to anyone that feels they need it. I am always up for learning a language myself.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Feel free to ask regarding this.
