Where to begin? ... Well, I love being a student and studying to achieve the best I can - I do take a lot of pride in my work. Aspiring to do a PhD in Early Modern Literature and Cultural Philosophy - Shakespeare is awesome! While studying can be pretty intense I always make time for my friends and family, whether that's the odd lazy day with pizza or going on an adventure and seeing where we end up!
Overall I'd like to think I'm a laid back, easy going, funny and thoughtful individual who is looking to get the most out of life and always planning my next big adventure!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To see the world and meet new people! There is so much this amazing, fantastic and diverse world has to offer, and I would love along the way to meet some amazing people that I can hopefully remain good friends with.

Interests

Reading - especially for academic purposes.
Have done martial arts since I was aged 4 and competed for England in European and World tournaments.
Quite big on my sport - especially Rugby, Cricket, NFL and NBA.
Done a lot of acting in the past - have played Hamlet, Oberon, and Romeo at my local theatre.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music gets me through the day! Red Hot Chili Peppers will forever be my heroes! To name a few others: Muse, Biffy Clyro, Kings of Leon, Michael Jackson, David Bowie, Simon&Garfunkel, Bob Dylan, Of Monsters and Men, My Chemical Romance, Imagine Dragons, All time Low, YouMeAtSix, 30 Seconds to Mars

I do also love my films and I'm an avid Star Wars fan. Also really enjoy Lord of the Rings, Marvel, Doctor Who and Game of Thrones.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have won two European Gold Medals in Martial Arts. One when I was 14 in Spain and another when I was 18 in Ireland - though I suppose that counts as two ...

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I'd like to think I have quite an extensive knowledge on English history from 1550-1700, as well as the literature from that period, especially the likes of Shakespeare, Donne, Milton, Dryden and Rochester. Also, having a Masters degree in English, I'd say my English is pretty good. If you want to know more please do feel free to ask.
