About Me

I am from a small city in England called Hereford. It's very boring so I quit my job and spent 2 years trying to find somewhere else to live. I have been to 40 countries so far and my goal is to visit every country in the world in my lifetime. I have just settled in Brisbane, Australia and hope to be here for the next 3 years.

I love hiking, camping and being in the outdoors, my favourite hiking spot was Bukhansan National park in Korea, I have camped out under the stars numerous times on my trip sometimes in bizarre places like an abandoned hotel in Montenegro and a Jungle in Hong Kong.

I practice photography and make travel videos from the places I visit. I'd love to meet up with anyone interested in photoshoots or making videos. I mostly focus on Landscapes & cities but I want to get better at portraits with the right people.

I'm looking for people to hangout with here in Brisbane, local or travelers. We can walk around or get coffee or if I'm in the right kind of mood we can go out and party till 6am in the valley.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy meeting other travelers from around the world to share stories and travel tips with. Couchsurfing is great for meeting people and making friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I like literally all genres of music. My Spotify has no rhyme or reason just good songs from all over the world which I'm happy to share with you.

Movies: Trainspotting - I love Scottish culture

TV: I watched Game of Thrones a lot although I lost interest later on, I have been to most of the filming locations. I also just finished Chernobyl which I thoroughly enjoyed and holds a special place for me as I have been there twice.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled from the UK to South Korea by land, crossing 30 countries in about 9 months by myself.

Visited Chernobyl twice, it's something I'm very interested and passionate about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook Bolognese :)
