I was born in Ashford, Kent in England and spent a couple of years in Johannesburg, South Africa from the ages of 13 and 14. I have just graduated with a 2.1 degree from Plymouth university in Marketing and following the completion of my studies I have set out to travel the world currently based in Las Vegas moving down to San Diego and Los Angeles.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think meeting up with people all over the world and showing others round the places you live is something that is helpful to both you and the person travelling. I want to make friends all over the world and experience the real sights and sounds that the people living in a place experience - not the bullshit touristy version. If I can show someone the things that make my home city special to me or help them with a place to stay then that's something that I find incredible rewarding.

Interests

I'm a lover of all sports but my main focus is on football (soccer to the Americans amongst you) where I represent my university as well as having previously played at a semi professional standard. My other interests are huge range of films, good coffee, cooking great food, exploring the world around as well as a beer or two!!

Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste varies massively and I am a member of our University's DJ Society. My selected genre would be house and garage although I listen to pretty much anything from jazz through to rock. My favourite film would have to be Saving Private Ryan, Snatch or City of God again difficult to select just a few.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

First and foremost getting a degree was a massive achievement although being an adrenaline junkie myself completing a 12,000 ft skydive for my 21st birthday was amazing.
