So I just hit 30. For us in the UK that means one last year to squeeze in a working visa. So I sold my stuff, got my motorcycle license and booked a one way flight heading east towards Canada, the long way round. Let the adventure begin!

That was 10 months and many countries ago. Traveling being traveling I never made it all the way round as planned but here I am on the move to Canada to make Vancouver my new home.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

It would be great to meet some friendly people that can share local tips, a beer, their city, countryside or even surrounding countries (thinking road trip) with me.

Интересы

Snowboarding, hiking, climbing, diving and anything with two wheels - Uphill, downhill, road or track, man or motor powered.
I want to cycle the Canadian rockies. Ride from Vancouver down the PCT to Mexico and cross S.America by motorbike.

I played a little hockey as a kid and definitely want to check out a game while I'm in town.

By career I work as a graphic designer so i'm always curious to understand people, new culture, views and perspectives. My camera rarely leaves my side especially when you get awesome people in beautiful places. Instagram.com/hello.lawrence

I'm vegetarian born and bred so have an interest in my food and like finding new and exciting restaurants to try. I can also drink pretty well so if you fancy swapping stories over a coffee or beer then let's do it!

Музыка, кино и книги

Currently watching Suites, How I met your mother, Sons of Anarchy.

Music is dependent on my mood but lately Ive been getting into a little bit of country after visiting nashville last year - A country boy at heart I like the idea behind the simple life.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

I spent a couple of months this year hiking across the Himalayas which was amazing, crossed Rajasthan on a Royal Enfield. Spent my birthday in a tribal headhunters village. Got colorful for Holi festival in India. Taught English to kids in the Vietnamese mountains and volunteered on an eco farm in the Srilankan rainforest. So hopefully shouldn't be short on conversation.

One of my missions in Canada is to find the spirit bear - yes this is a real thing..!
