I'm new to couch surfing - but I'm hoping that I can meet lots of new people...and also host people when I'm back in the UK.

For the past 8 years of my life I have been a chef - mostly working in Michelin starred restaurants and pubs. I'm looking to move on from this and become a professional photographer. I enjoy keeping fit, experiencing new cultures and travelling... and I seem to have been blessed with the gift of Dog-whispering.

My instagram for photography is - instagram.com/olliewilliamsphoto

I'm looking to experience new things. Saying yes, and saying yes to (almost) everything.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

From travelling around the world, I've been recommended couch surfing by travellers who have said its a great platform to meet new people and explore new places.

I've always enjoyed travelling and exploring - wether that be where I currently live or a new county, country or continent. I also enjoy meeting new people...staying with them in their own countries gives you an insight into their culture far more than hotels/hostels ever could.

I'd also like to return the favour when I'm back in the UK!

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

When I have time to kill - films and books are a passion of mine...but also, like the rest of the world, Game Of Thrones is a must watch on Sunday evenings.

Into literally all types of music (classical, folk, indie, jazz, heavy metal, drum and bass...but probably not pop.)

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I've scuba dived with 3 meter sharks in Dubai in one of the largest aquariums in the world.
I've read a newspaper in the Dead sea in Jordan.
I've seen 3 of the 7 wonders of the modern world - hopefully I will see all 7 in the next couple of years!

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I will always have my camera with me so if you want a photograph of a pet, yourself or a family member that is (slightly) better than your phone - then I might be able to manage that.

Cooking is something that is very easy for me - I would happily cook or join in with some cooking!

I would love to trade stories, travel tips and experiences with people!
