About Me

I'm fun loving and enjoy adventures. I'm a great story teller and have plenty to tell!
I love meeting new people and exploring new places, so couch surfing is a ideal.
I've been traveling since January 2015, so haven't had the chance to host. However my parents host on my behalf back in the UK. Often using the 'warm showers' app.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My brother couch served when he was traveling Italy and met some great people! I thought I'd give it a go and hope for the same 😊
Whilst growing up we hosted long term for exchange students, travellers, friends of friends, people new to our area.

Interests

I'd like to find the things that tourists who are passing through would miss. I love hiking, cycling and swimming. I also have a keen interest in art and history.
In September 2017 I'll be heading back to the UK to study Design.

Music, Movies, and Books

I've a very eclectic mix of music taste, usually dependant on my mood or current situation. Recently whilst cycling I got really into rap music (it helped me get up the big hills) haha

I'm not very good at watching films, because it requires sitting still for so long. So usually only watch them when on long haul flights.

I usually listen to audiobooks rather than reading books. I find it allows me to do other things whilst still being immersed in a story.
However I'll read 'real life' books if it's for study.

Some of my favourite audiobooks have been...
'The hundred year old man who climbed out of the window and disappeared'
All of the books by Robert Galbraith (J.K Rowling writing under a pseudonym)
'The first 15 lives of Harry August'
'Beside myself'
'Birdsong'
'The complete Sherlock Holmes'
'Wild'
...... I could go on forever

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've cycled from east coast England to west coast Wales (255 miles)
And summer 2016 I plan to cycle from Canada to Mexico along the west coast of America.

Teach, Learn, Share

Let's share some travel stories!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I trained as a photographer whilst in school and have since worked as a children's portrait photographer whilst traveling.
I'm also a qualified masseuse and lifeguard.
I can always share a laugh, a smile and a beer or two ✌🏼️
