About Me

Hello new friends!

I just completed 6 months travel through Sri Lanka, India and Nepal with a lot of excitement to get back to Europe. Starting in Slovakia I plan to take the long way home by hitchhiking.

On my last trip I planned on staying for a 6 month ski season in Japan. Falling in love with the country and landscape, I stayed for a year and a half working for a start up company, learning a lot and really opening my eyes to the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe the best way to see countries is through staying with the people that choose to live there.

Interests

I'm always looking to try new things, especially adventurous activities. If I can learn a new skill whilst I travel, I try to so that I can fully appreciate the joys of life and can get involved in every opportunity.

Music, Movies, and Books

Into lots of music - like to party to drum and bass, chill to Ben Howard, clean to Pavrov Stelar; drive to The XX.

Not a big reader although reading more as I travel.

Movies for me depend on mood, sometimes thought-provoking, sometimes action, sometimes Hollywood trash but love Guy Ritchie films.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skied on an active volcano

Teach, Learn, Share

Native English speaker with lots of experience helping friends improve.

I just bought a mouth harp so feel free to have a go.

Let's hitch hike somewhere.
