To travel, discover and experience new places and cultures.

There are positives to take from everything in life, the most important thing is to make the most of the time you have.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am keen to start building my Couchsurfing experience and a couple summers ago surfed with someone in Denver.

I have hosted (not through CS) a girl from Finland working on an activity holiday for children in London and would be open to hosting in the future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed August 2014 with Howard in Denver

Interests

When I can I like to travel, I have seen a lot of Europe and the USA. As a trombone player I have grown to love jazz, funk and loads more, I go to jazz gigs whenever I can. I have a huge interest in cars (SUVs, classic and muscle) and also I love great food!
