My name is Marc and I'm from the UK. After working in insurance for 5 years I realised that that is not how I want my life to go. I packed it in and I've set off around the world on a solo bike ride. I love all things adventurous from mountaineering, rock climbing, cycling, you name it and I'll give it a go. I'm keen to meet new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm currently on a solo cycle around the world starting from home in the UK heading around Europe, through Asia, Australia, New Zealand, then finally up the spine of America starting in Ushuia heading up to Alaska.

I think couch surfing would provide me with meeting some like minded interesting characters from all around the world.
