About Me

***We are away from May 2016 until end of July 2016 so unfortunately cannot accept any guests during this time***

I am a junior doctor, living in Cannock UK with my girlfriend Holly and our dog Barney. From August 2016 I will be specialising in haematology with time for lab based research. I am into sport and play hockey for Stafford Hockey Club, as well as playing in a modern folk band called 'Don't Touch the Walls' in my spare time. We love the outdoors and are currently undertaking a 2000 mile bike ride with Barney from the Lofoten Islands in the Norwegian Arctic down to the Austria.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are undertaking a bike ride with our dog Barney from Norway to the Alps and wanted to find some interesting places to stay as well as meet some interesting people who we hope might come to visit us one day.
