My name's Matthew but most people call me Matty. I'm passionate about people and wish to further my understanding of the world by travelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

From an early age I wanted to explore the world. Living in London is lovely but the lifestyle can really make you lose a sense of adventure so now I'm preparing for a trip to Asia! I haven't used couch surfing properly since signing up a year ago but now feel that it will be more helpful than ever. I want to be able to understand the culture by experiencing the lives people live and couch surfing is perfect for that.
