Hello!

My name is Milan Cater. Jamaican born, Honduran raised, Scottish educated lover of travel and meeting new people! I currently study International Relations in Scotland with a focus on Cultural Identity Discourse.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've only heard great things about it---I've travelled and stayed in many places in different ways, from private renting apartments, megadorms in huge hostels, and hotels--but never a couch!

Interests

Yoga Practice- #yogaeverydamnday

Food- I love cooking almost as much as I love eating! I will try anything, dare me!

Travel & Culture: I love to find out what makes a culture special, what makes a country's identity unique by learning as much about them and the people that live there as possible! There's always something new to be learned.
