About Me

I don't know how to write this without sounding cliché but I like to think I'm fairly open-minded and enjoy travelling around in order to break up the monotony and have a little bit of an escape. I've got a degree in Biology, most of which I can't remember now, but I'm currently working with people with autism. I really like to travel, I find it helps to put it all into perspective. Feel free to message me if you want more info.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always tended to use hostels but now that I understand the working life I've decided to branch out and become even more of a penny pincher at the expense of my own safety. ..

...honestly, hostels are full of fellow travellers, and that's nice, but I hope couchsurfing will give me a more genuine impression of a place with a native host.

Interests

I love music- though I'm no good at it. I have a general interest in things which means I might be able to hold a conversation for a little while. To be honest, I just enjoy people and try to get on with everyone. You can learn a little from every person you meet.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really liked a book called 'Titus Groan' when I was growing up. I don't read half as much as I should or used to. I enjoy a lot of stuff and I'm being too lazy to document it all.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Err... well maybe the seldom times I get to travel! I tend to do it alone, and have since I was 20, the first trip being an interrail trip around Europe that opened my eyes to the wider world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well, I suppose the best thing I can do is help out. If you need any assistance to make my stay less arduous I'll happily oblige.

Honestly, I'll try my best.
