A 24 year old half-English, half-American trying to grow a small business in Sussex after having spent a year working in London.

My interests are running, specialty coffee, tea culture, surfing and hiking.

In my spare time I am learning Arabic and computer programming.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While working in London I spent a lot of time when on business trips in generic hotels meeting the same sorts of people. Having had such a multi-cultural upbringing, I want to get out and discover cities from a different perspective than that offered by the brochures in the hotel lobbies I used to stay.

Music, Movies, and Books

Very eclectic taste in music: from soul to Sufi chanting.

Likewise for films. I am a big fan of French cinema. TV wise I cannot get enough of True Detective, The Sopranos and The Wire.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungee jumped over the Victoria Falls... The same jump that snapped two years later (!)

What I Can Share with Hosts

French lessons, help with cooking, contributing to costs.
