About Me

I've taken a year out mid-degree to travel round Asia/Asutralasia for a year with my girlfriend. Before going back to uni I lived in China for two and a half years where I taught English and learned Chinese. Done a fair bit of travelling over the years and am very excited to spend some time in that corner of the world.

I enjoy playing music, bass and guitar, listening to live music, travlling, climbing, running, hiking, skiing, eating nice food, drinking and other fun things

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hoping to meet some fun people and take advantage of peoples hospitality so we can make our tavelling money go as far as possible. I've done some workaway in the past and am hoping to do some of that on this trip too. I'm always very respectful when people open their home to me and treat it with the utmost care and consideration.

Interests

Love to play music, have been in a few bands over the years usually playing bass but occasionally rhythm guitar. Love to climb, have done some sport climbing in the UK, Slovenia and China and interested to do more.
I've ran a few marathons but never do particularly well.
