Overview
About Me
I'm a pretty friendly, easy going, down to earth person. I'm reasonably sociable but also love my own space! I like to think I have a bit of a (dry) sense of humor too...
Travelling has become a huge interest, and a lifestyle for me since August 2014 into mid January 2015. During my time travelling through Mexico & a few Central American countries, I was inspired by other travellers who stayed with other like-minded people and experiencing another side to where they were staying - hence why I'm now here on Couchsurfers!
Interests
A few things I love:
- Music & Travelling (more details elsewhere!)
- Architecture: even though it's my field of expertise, I love buildings.. seeing different ones from around the world as well as appreciating design whether it be its external appearance or how well thought out a space is internally.
- Sports: although I'm not actively engaged in any teams or activities now, I love playing sports like soccer & tennis, and enjoy the odd mountain bike ride!
- Rocks: No idea why, but I've always loved crystals & rocks and that sort of thing.. I started a collection when I was young and can't resist looking at them when I come across stands with their various crystals!

Music, Movies, and Books
I am a huge fan of heavy metal (bands most in my playlist right now: Insomnium, Alcest, Carcass, Sabaton, Orphaned Land, Amon Amarth & Voyager), particularly Melo Death, Thrash, Progressive & Power, and the odd bit of Death metal. I also love lots of the music most people are into, like: Alternative, Brit Pop, Electronic, D&B etc, and am definite fans of Radiohead, Coldplay, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Pendulum... so many others that fill in the gaps!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'd be more than happy to share any of the experiences I've had either living or visiting the countries I've been to throughout my life. I'm also very clean & tidy, so I'm happy to keep (or make!) your house totally clean!
