CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to eat my bodyweight in peanut butter by August 2013, though new one's pop up all of the time.

ABOUT ME

Well, I'm Matt. I'm twenty five and have just moved to Edinburgh from Glasgow.I have been working in Edinburgh for a few months now and can tell you that it has alot to offer!

I love meeting new people and will go out of my way to ensure that people have a great time!

I have been a Firefighter for just over a year and believe I have one of the best job's in the world! It affords me plenty of free time to see new things and meet new people.

PHILOSOPHY

We're not here for a long time, We are here for a GOOD TIME!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I intend to host and be hosted, hopefully.

I have plenty of bikes that people can use and also have a rust bucket of a motor, which means that If you intend to see more of Scotland, we can get you there.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My best friend has just been around India couchsurfing and told me I should get on here to offer weary travellers a good time.

I intend to couchsurf myself during the summer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
