I just finished my Bachelors degree in Sociology and am about to start a Masters degree. I am also working as a social researcher, which I love doing..

I'm quite sociable and am an open book - willing to talk about anything, happy to tell people about myself and wiling to listen and learn from others. I get along with most people, and enjoy talking about a range of things including philosophy, culture, society, travel, literature, popular culture, politics, interesting experience, funny memories, etc! I'm try not to take things too seriously and typically like to joke around. I can be a little shy at first but I warm up to people quickly!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I absolutely love travelling and exploring new places. One of the best parts of travelling is meeting new people. My friendships now span the globe and I'm always looking to meet new people who I can hopefully connect with and learn from!
