I'm 25and currently travelling on a 9 month trip with my boyfriend Ben around Asia !Started in Nepal to trek Everest base camp, then India for Holi festival, Myanmar for the water festival and then onto south east Asia for some good food, good people and good drink! Love exploring new city's and sampling other cultures. Especially the local food, music and beer. Will pick street food over a fancy restaurant, and a chat with a beer over a club any day 🍻 Finished uni 3 years ago and been back and forth travelling ever since! Ben just graduated uni in June and this is his first big trip, tryna meet as many cool, down to earth people as we can :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hopefully get to stay at cool places and see parts of the city I wouldn't if I was in a hostel. Love to chat and get to know people instead of always just meeting tourists in a dorm room. Offering a place in UK whenever anyone passes by!

Interests

Enjoy anything I'm able to do! Love trying new things at least once. Enjoy being outdoors, exploring new cities, trying different activities and sports. Biking, running and working out. Reading, checking out some galleries or street art, eating good food, having a few drinks and spending time around new people and hearing all their stories.
