About Me

Hey,

As of September I'll be starting full-time as an economist so I'm making sure I get a last minute frolick around as much of the southern states of the US as possible!

Would describe myself as a friendly and approachable guy with an ability to strike up a conversation with just about anyone going! Definitely get a buzz off of meeting new people and getting a glimpse into their little adventures!

Love to keep myself busy, challenge myself and (try my best to) motivate others too! Big fan of everything from boxing to maths, having volunteered extensively in both those fields, I feel I've always got something to add/learn from any topic!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing seems to attract the most positive kind of people out there! Those that would open their homes and give up their time to help others! It's those kind of people that are so brilliant to meet when travelling and really allow you to immerse yourself in the best a place has to offer!

Interests

I've been in bands, boxed competitively made amateur films and more!

Don't think there's any limit to what grabs my attention, just always on the lookout to learn something new/apply what I know to a new scenario!

  • running

  • guitar

  • soccer
  • tennis
  • economics

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:

Fan of everything from Fred Van Eps rag to up and coming metal bands with everything in between! Particular soft spot for Lou Reed, Leonard Cohen and those of that ilk

Movies:

Huge fan of 'The Room' 2003 (Introduced a fair few of my friends to it too!)

Books:

Everything from Beat generation writers to Bill Bryson's travel writing!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Represented my university in varsity boxing in front of a pumped up crowd of 1000 people + 5000 watching on TV

Teach, Learn, Share

Always open to learn, debate and share what I know. Would consider myself to be both open and patient so would hopefully be a good teacher/student :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good vibes and an open attitude, hopefully, I can help create a memorable experience, a lasting friendship and one day, return the favour!
