Travelling is important to me. I long to see the world.

I was first 'bitten' by the travel bug on a world trip, since then I've been trying to see more local sights, whilst saving for the next big trip. Travelling is a great way to meet people and experience different cultures.

Currently I am a copywriter and work for a travel PR company. I am also trying to get my own digital agency off the ground and have started a travel blog (https://natpacker.com)

Other interests include getting outdoors and exploring nature. I am passionate about conservation and animal welfare, which is why I love getting outdoors. Hiking is a great way to explore the local countryside and I love trying new activities such as rafting and rappelling.

Reading is also a hobby of mine. I'm a complete bookworm. Mainly read fantasy/sci-fi, but have recently gotten into classics. I am a massive Tolkien fan and have recently developed a love for Shakespeare.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love meeting people. Living with a local is a great way to really see a place you are visiting. It means you will explore areas off the main tourist path and see what makes the locals love where they live.

Having guests is a great way to learn about other places you never knew existed. And a chance to show your love of your local area.

For me, travel is about learning. You learn about the place, the people and the culture. Staying with a local helps with this learning process.

I also like the Riftwar Series, Dragonlance and Game of Thrones. As well as classics such as Dickens, Grimm Fairy Tales and Dracula.

I'm into rock music and folk music.

A curiosity about where I am and curiosity to learn. I can be quiet, but that doesn't mean I am not interested. I am a good listener.

I enjoy cooking, plus I can make a good cuppa (or so I'm told).
