Hi my name is Matt and my husbands name is Bobby . I have been couch surfing for 6 years now and it all started during a 9 week backpacking adventure around America . On that trip I was staying in hostels but kept coming across people who told me about Couch Surfing. Couch surfing sounded amazing to , you got to meet people from the actual places you were staying and you got to witness the real town as seen by its residents. I love to travel and I love to meet new people so couch surfing is perfect for me . I am a nurse who up until recently worked within the field of HIV but I have now moved to a day Unit which means I have my weekends free again ! Yay . Myself and my husband both love the theatre, cinema and socialising with our friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As states above I love to travel and I love meeting people from all over the world ! . You can never have too many friends and too many experiences .

I (Matthew) have also seen the Grand Canyon and various European cities and American cities. Bobby has sat in the front row at center court at Wimbledon and gone skydiving!
