About Me

I'm Oscar originally born in Kenya but grew up in london. I love to dive into the variety of delights that London has to offer. Enjoy a varied groups of globally sourced friends who enable me to constantly test out new things and although exhausted at times i love the variety that this city has to offer.

Having said that i love to travel, meet new people and explore new cultures. I'm especially excited about trying new food and meeting people who you wouldn't bump into on my normal every day life.

Previously hosted a lot of cool people in my previous flat which had a spare room about a year ago and would love to try Couchsurfing from a surfer's perspective soon!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love London, but discovered that by ourselves we don't always get to know everything that's out there as it's so large. Hoping that couchsurfing will expand the constant adventures both at home and abroad and expand my friendship group.

On top of that I discovered some years ago that there's no better way of really getting to see what the city has to offer than by speaking to everyone as we all have our own stories, our own wants and therefore we can gain something new from each other.
Being from a multicultural and global family every new visitor I've had, i've discovered new thing/event and areas i might have never visited. so with this expansion we're here to bring on some more good times!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Worked in a school in Jo-berg , it was in the middle of a shanty town. We were only able to stay for 2 days as it was part of a conservation trip, but during that period the kids probably taught me a lot more than i did for them and will for ever be greatful.
