About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Write, travel, solve

ABOUT ME

Wanderlust led me to doing adventuring around and doing my PhD here in Europe. Now I'm just finishing up, but my time has been previously split between London, Berlin, and a bit in the Italian Alps.

I love exchanging stories and debating about politics, history, and life. I'm a big fan of just breaking off from the main path and going to explore things for myself. That's where the best stories come from. The past few years have been amazing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mainly by going around to couchsurfing meetings. Currently travelling and in transition, so I can't host, but will start once I get back!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't fully couchsurfed before, but many of my friends have been active in the various cities where I've lived, and I have come to a few meetup events. Everything I have heard has been lovely.

Interests

The outdoors, good food, storytelling, boardgames, radio, oysters, diatoms.
