About Me

I'm very laid-back, and like to just relax and fall into things and go with the flow. Those things can be a lot of fun, like booking a white water rafting, booze cruise and gorge swing for a 1 day stay at victoria falls, didn't intend to do all of it. Or something more basic like wandering down to pubs by the river, to spend all day with my feet in the water, drinking cider, and playing a giant game of connect four.

I love any music, any sport, any book, or really anything that can keep me entertained....and that doesnt take much more than sitting at a computer with internet access.

Love travelling and meeting people, as I just want to see and meet as many of the amazing things/people in the world as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Really like meeting new people and making friends while I'm travelling. So this is easily one of the best ways to guarantee interesting people to meet and hang out with.

Interests

I'm very easily interested, so I watch or follow a range of sports (football, cricket rugby, formula 1). I listen to A LOT of music. I play drums. Study Physics, hoping to go into medical physics. Read books when i remember to or get round to it. I really enjoy cooking. Watch a fair amount of tv/films. And of course travelling, and meeting new people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'll read, watch, or listen to whatever you put in front of me. Music I truly will listen to and appreciate anything, huge fan of rock, and hip-hop, but am just as happy to listen to ambient electronica, post-rock, punk, metal or anything else.

Books, usually end up reading fantasy or classic stuff just because its what I tend to get my hands on. My kindle is loaded with classic books just because they were free on amazon, and I'm slowly working through them while travelling.

Film again I can watch anything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I guess running cultural exchange workshops in kenya with my college. They weren't much and mainly involved me just doing question and answers with the children, about me and the U.K.

Scored the only goal in the football match between the group that travelled with me and the schools U13 girls team, I'm still proud of that.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm really going to want to raid your music collection, see what you're listening to so that I can add it to my own.

I can cook, or help cook, for anyone who wants me to. I really like working with people to make food because it feels like a collective triumph to eat it then.
