Hi! I’m a British (born and bred) doctor living in central London. I work in mental health. I’m pretty open minded and super friendly! I love cooking and eating out. I have a cat and a dog. I’m very well travelled, recently couch-surfed in Central America with my friend so thought it’s about time I got my account!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love going to places as a traveller and not a tourist and immersing myself into different cultures, cuisines and customs and find that hotels limit this learning!

Music, Movies, and Books

Jazz - I’m a huge fan of John Coltrane & Duke Ellington. I like psychological thrillers and documentaries. I’m a bit of a history geek.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Rescued a partially sighted cat from Romania and brought her all the way back to the UK.

Teach, Learn, Share

I spend some of my time at university doing research in psychiatry. I’m currently learning Arabic.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My home in an amazing location and my passion for London! My friends joke that I ought to be a tour guide. I know all the cool spots but also “real London” spots that as a tourist you might not discover!
