Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To explore the world, and come back alive... Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.
ABOUT ME
I had an incredible gap year that secured CouchSurfing a hugely warm place in my heart, and was then at University for 3 years in York, England. Fitted in some big trips since then as well as 2 years of Law School, and now a further 2 years of training as a Lawyer in London. I am ambitious, enthusiastic and terrible at writing 'About Me' descriptions...
PHILOSOPHY
I know that I need to use my education and opportunities to change the world and make the difference that others can't. And remember to laugh when things go wrong.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Too many experiences! Unbelievable fun, far too many late night deep n meaningful conversations, and the occasional nutter. Have now couch surfed in most continents!
Interests
Reading, books, literature-esque things.
Almost any kind of film, I'm ridiculously easily pleased in the cinema.
Combat sports, although I'm actually not that angry.

Music, Movies, and Books
The Great Russians. The Great Americans. The Great Post-Colonial Indians. Philip Pullman...
I'm quite into Blues and Rock at the moment, but I honestly believe every kind of music suits a certain feeling and place, so my Playlists are very varied.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Edinburgh Fringe, travelling Trans-Siberian, watching sunrise over Jerusalem, snorkelling at the Great Barrier Reef, learning how to scuba dive in Thailand, getting a good job, staying sane and happy on the London Underground... All incredible.
Teach, Learn, Share
Never leave your swiss army knife in your hand luggage...
What I Can Share with Hosts
Hopefully some great stories, any help I can offer, and a lot of enthusiasm for wherever I am at that time.
