About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy my year in Canada, Central America and the USA.

ABOUT ME

I currently have a year off my job in London and a working visa for Canada, although I want to go all over North America seeing many different places, meeting many different people, as well as spending some time living in Canada. At the moment I am travelling about Central America and Mexico.

PHILOSOPHY

It's about being happy, do what makes you happy. You should probably help others out a bit too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to this, having only just heard about it from a friend, but love the sound of staying and experiencing a place with a local instead of staying at a hostel/hotel.

At the moment I am travelling about and don't have a home, so looking for couches to surf. When I return to London I would like to open my couch up for surfing.

Also I have just started looking into the groups and events, seems there's a lot more to this than just the travels.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Very little at the moment, after recently hearing about it, I have just signed up, and would like to start coachsurfing on my current travels. Someone's got to be first in giving me a go, I'm nice honest.

Interests

Travelling all over the place obviously,meeting new interesting people, food - cooking & eating, beer probably a bit too much, live music, exploring, cities, festivals of all sorts, fun.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like them, I like them a lot, especially music, I love seeing live music. Can tell you more about if I meet you. I am always up for hearing, watching, reading new things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Had the opportunity and fortune to travel all over the world meeting lots of interesting unique people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to learn to play the trumpet, how to cook different dishes/cuisines and be better at speaking other languages.

I can teach people to play the guitar/ukulele, to cook, perhaps about some science, and know quite a bit about beer.
