About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To save the world! :p

ABOUT ME

I'm not very good at describing myself but I will give it a go...I love to laugh, eat, dance and to be outdoors. I love cycling and playing all sorts of sports - especially football.

I am outgoing and love to meet new people and explore new places. I love travelling and have lived in Holland, Mexico and Brazil.

I am travelling with my partner who has shared many couchsurfing experiences with me in Manchester and in the Netherlands (she is mentioned in the references, so you can check she isn't a nutter) and she is also very outgoing and loves being outdoors. She is abit quieter than me and loves reading or hanging out with peoples pets.

We are both avid football fans, passionate about the environment and love travelling.

We are also vegetarian :)

PHILOSOPHY

Be yourself no matter what they say.

Be nice to animals.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love both hosting and surfing couches, it's great fun and a fantastic way of learning about new cultures - but just in general a great way to make new friends. I have made some friends who I hope to keep in contact with and return the favour some time in England.

I have hosted people when I lived in Manchester and have surfed and met great people all over Europe and in Brazil!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My partner and I hosted a fair few people when we lived in Manchester. Sadly our flat in London was too small and damp for couchsurfing but we will definitely be hosting again as soon as we can.

We have both surfed in the Netherlands for two weeks (whilst looking for a home) and loved it. We have also surfed in England, Brazil, France and a few more....hopefully the USA.

See reference section :)

Interests

I love nature, cycling, walking, camping, any outdoor activities really. I'm an active greenpeace member and love taking part in protests, campaigns etc.

I also love sport....football, badminton and tennis especially. And I'm a life long Liverpool fan :)
