About Me

I'm an English backpacker currently travelling through Australia! So far I've visited Melbourne, Sydney and Perth.

I love to travel but also really enjoy reading, swimming and cycling, I'd also love to learn how to surf!

I'm a very open minded person and am willing to try new things and broaden my horizons.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So far I've been living in hostels whilst travelling, although they're great for meeting people you don't get the chance to meet locals who know the area well

Music, Movies, and Books

My music tastes change pretty regularly, but I love electronic music and some indie and Brit pop bands.

My favourite book is 1984 by George Orwell, which I based my university dissertation on.

I don't watch a lot of movies, I prefer TV shows, especially sci-fi and comedies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Whilst travelling through Thailand, I volunteered at a primary school in a very poor area to teach English, a lot of the children were very young and could only speak a few words. By the end of the week one girl came up to me and said that she was determined to learn English and to get a good job so she could come and visit me in England, this made me realise just how lucky I was to be born in such a privileged country, and that life is not to be taken for granted!

Teach, Learn, Share

If you have access to a horse, I can teach you to ride!
