About Me

I am a twenty-something guy originally from the UK but later moved to Australia. After extended period in South East Asia I am back in England studying at Cambridge, but always looking for the next opportunity to stretch my travel muscles.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that helping the traveller is a natural part of human goodness, and apart from being fascinating to learn more about each other's cultures and experiences, we benefit intrinsically from the positive energy that is created.

I am interested in harmony.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning about languages and how they reflect people's heritage. I have experience teaching English as a second language and I can help out with any manual labour around the house/ farm. I would like to learn how to cook authentic recipes from local cuisines, and I will happily cook up a storm if anyone lets me. I am trying to learn Silat (an Indonesian Martial Art).
