About Me

A student from Yorkshire, living the high life in Tokyo for a year: singing karaoke, eating ramen till I burst, struggling with the language and meeting beautiful people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see as many different places as possible and experience them from a new perspective. I love meeting new people and sharing cultures. Very passionate about couches.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all sorts: Soul music, Talking Heads, jazz, Kendrick Lamar, Mac Demarco, Courtney Barnett... Anything i can sing along to
My all time fave movie is probably The Big Lebowski or maybe the Lion King
I don't read as much as I should but the best book I have read in the last few years was The Lacuna by Barbara Kingsolver, I highly recommend it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camped on Whitehaven Beach on the Whitsunday islands in Australia with my best friend. We saw the sunrise and set over the ocean and spent the whole day snorkelling around the island.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Yorkshire slang! I'm always down to learn and share recipes and new songs
