Overview
About Me
I'm a martial artist, Hertfordshire born and raised!
I've been travelling alone since I was 15 years old, and at 18 years old I moved to China to train kung fu under the renowned Shifu Wang Xing Long. I'm still there now.
Training in China has shaped who I am as a person, both physically, mentally and spiritually. Training 8 hours a day every day forces you to re evaluate who you are as a person, and to stick it out is the hardest thing I've ever done in my life.
One of the best things I have gained from there is the connections I have made with people. The long term students there are my family, and we have bonds stronger and deeper than anything I ever knew possible.
Other than that, I am a very mindful person, always learning, always conscious. I just want to be happy.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Far more interesting (and cheaper!) way to travel!
I've travelled a lot of Europe and Asia and the best thing about it is the people I meet. They really have shaped my travels and I have found some of my best friends that way. I hope to continue these experiences and as well if I can give something back to others.

HP Lovecraft is my favourite author... night gaunts is the best poem ever written. Lord of the Rings. Obviously.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Performed kung fu on live tv in my city of Siping in China.
Every time I spar with my master I feel pretty accomplished.. he was number 1 in kick boxing in China for 3 years in a row.
