ABOUT ME

I've lived in London for 12 years and have used this time to try and meet as many people from as many different cultures as possible. I've travelled extensively and use couchsurfing as much as possible - it's a great way to meet like-minded people and explore new places.

I take photographs of the places I visit and would eventually like to have a career in photojournalism. For now I work as a development chef and food event planner, so I always try and thank people for hosting me by cooking meals and (if appropriate) providing wine :). I've worked in restaurants all over the world and always try to eat out as much as possible when I'm away so that I can use the experience to write new menus!

I'm pretty easy going and just want to hang out, eat a lot and see some cool stuff.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've only ever hosted twice as I rarely have the capacity to do so, but try to help in whatever way I can and I'm always up for meeting up with people if they want some city tips or just to hang out. As soon as I get my own place I'll be hosting all of the time!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All of my couchsurfing experiences have been excellent and I've met loads of really great people on here. I can't recommend it enough.
