CURRENT MISSION

Travel, see, learn, experience, share, party...

ABOUT ME

Left the English Countryside at 18 for Paris then Vienna. Six years, a couple of languages and degrees later, headed for the bright lights of London to become a teacher after a brief foray into Politics, just moved to Warsaw.

Live life to the full with a more than healthy work/life balance. Live and breathe the city 100% but spend every spare second of the generous free time afforded by my profession, globetrotting and gallivanting.

PHILOSOPHY

Travel, literature that opens the mind, cinema that isn’t lazy, the feel and vibe of any and every new city or culture, learning languages, soccer, outdoors swimming, cycling, running, making and eating fine food, partying and drinking, Politics and current affairs and meting new folk!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Because you only get to scratch beneath the surface of a place with local knowledge, I want to meet people who love their city as I love mine and who have the open mindedness and desire to share their city with others.

I've just moved to wonderful Warsaw.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted a few people in London and hung out with people in Toronto and Chicago.
