Hi there! I'm Josh. 31, English, doctor, now living in London. I'm quite a laid-back guy, and I love to meet new people, to share experiences and find out others' perspectives on the world. I love to travel, so the pandemic has given me seriously itchy feet, and looking forward to getting out and about in the world again!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Its a great way to get to know a place. Every time I've couchsurfed I've ended up learning so much more than from staying in a hostel, and usually met some fantastic people too.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Music:

Movies:
I've seen way too many movies, let's compare favourites.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Seeing an elephant wander into our camp in Ngorogoro crater in Tanzania was pretty spectacular, as was seeing it charge at us 10 minutes later. I have never run so fast.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can tell you about psychoanalysis and the best way to make cheesy scrambled eggs

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Many stories from travelling, a lot of music, hopefully a lot of laughter.
