I'm a 21 year old gay english college dropout with a sort of bank-breaking romantic addiction for seeing the world and talking to strangers. To make a living I work in a brewery tap bar in London. I also help out in a Migrant Support Centre, hopefully giving advice, food and sympathy to people facing immigration and destitution problems from my government.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a firmly held belief that travel is not about living in a hermetically-sealed box with other tourists. It is about a cultural exchange, about the sort of understanding you can only get when you speak to locals, share ideas and break bread together. I think that if you approach a holiday with a spirit of generosity, openness and maybe a little risk you are guaranteed to have a memorable time!

Interests

Music of all forms, but a special place in my heart for motown, house, disco, R-&-or-B, hip-hop and post-punk stuff.
Politics-y social justice stuff (more of a love-hate relationship)
Hangin' out, drinkin', abbreviatin'.
Writing, dry humour.

Music, Movies, and Books

LCD Soundsystem, Outkast, Daft Punk
Caribou, Erykah Badu, Jai Paul
NAO, Wilco, Grimes...
(this list could continue)
Movies are cool.
Novels are great, I read one every year.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going to Mexico on three days notice, staying for four months and learning Spanish.
