ABOUT ME

I'm possibly the coolest pharmacist to have ever filled a prescription.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking to get a more authentic and enjoyable travel experience by staying with locals of beautiful places around the world. I'm much more interested in getting a firsthand glimpse of daily life in your city than in finding a free place to stay.

Interests

Patrick Time involves reading, studying languages, indulging in excessive photography, playing guitar, playing hockey, watching Tottenham Hotspur end up in the Europa League again, watching excellent British television shows and continuing my quest to find the best pizza in the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to be able to practice the languages I've been studying and would be delighted to help someone with his or her English along the way!
