About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Try everything twice.......and go everywhere at least once
ABOUT ME
I am currently studying to be a primary school teacher in the UK, Newcastle Upon Tyne. I also have a part time job working at the main music arena in Newcastle.
I am very active, enjoying keeping fit....mainly rugby and going to the gym. More adventurous pursuits include SCUBA diving , climbing and skiing.
Once a qualified teacher, I want to travel the world teaching and live in Asia for a few years.
PHILOSOPHY
Chill out......just wing it as everything will be ok in the morning.
It could be worse, no one has died.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I first used CS in Thailand and loved it ever since. I surfed in Greece too and have also hosted.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I used couch surfing for the first time in Chiang Mai;and stopped with a great girl lauren, She showed me around the area and the bars. It made my time there and i want to try and do the same if someone comes to the UK.
Interests
I love rugby and going to the gym. Music and riding my motorbike are also huge parts of my life.
There are great bars here in Newcastle, i have been totally hammered in every single one of them at some point.
