CURRENT MISSION

Not to discover when I die that I have not lived

ABOUT ME

Hi!
We're Tom (in Sheffield) and Lily (in Lyon) and are currently on our gap years and wanting to travel and see places outside of the UK.
Between us we speak english and french - only Lily, Tom's too lazy to learn a language...:)
Tom once spent a night sleeping in his garden shed and so recognises the value of couchsurfing!
We're both chatty, inquisitive people who just want to make the most of this year before back to exams and essays in September.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We're new to CS and so haven't had experience of surfing or hosting, though Lily goes to the Lyon CS meetings which I love as they are a great way of meeeting amazingly interesting people!
