About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live the life I have been given to its fullest

ABOUT ME

I'm Nick, I'm 21 years old and I'm from the North of England, near Liverpool. I'm a law student at the University of Nottingham, and when I finish I will (hopefully) be going in to International Human Rights Law. I'm currently on exchange at the University of Texas at Austin. I have travelled pretty well for my age, I spent 5 months in Ecuador and the Galapagos. Here, I experienced things that changed my life forever, and infected me with the 'travel bug'. I travelled a while throughout Europe in addition, and I'd love to travel further throughout the US while I'm here. This will be my first adventure into couch surfing, and I am very excited at the prospect of meeting so many amazing people, each with their own unique stories.

PHILOSOPHY

Time waits for no man.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I both surf and host!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed a little in the USA, and it was such an amazing experience. Now I'm hosting, and I'm really enjoying experiencing things from the other end, being able to show people around my city instead of the other way around!

Teach, Learn, Share

There is nothing I love more than sitting up until the early hours of the morning with a good bottle of wine or two talking about anything and everything. I love to learn about different cultures and places and people, and the unique ideas and perspectives they have on the world. The more you talk and share, the more you learn, and the richer your life becomes.
