My name is Richard, and I am 21 years old from England.

Huge lover of travelling, as most people are on here.
I have lived in England (naturally), New Zealand (for a year) and now currently living in Canada (for two years).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because I think it's a great way to meet new people, and to make friends all over the world.

Interests

I am very big into reading and writing. At the moment writing is know more than a hobby, but we all dream that one day it'll lead to an actual career.

...and travelling. Do I even need to put that?
I have a travel blog that can be found at the following link: https://nzmeandering.wordpress.com/

• writing
• reading
• traveling
• backpacking

Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste is very varied. I am a fan of pretty much all genres of music, except for possibly heavy metal and most country songs.

My favourite movies (or films, to me) are the Lord of the Rings trilogy.... just don't mention the Hobbit.

Book-wise, I a huge fantasy fan. The Black Company by Glen Cook, and of course, Lord of the Rings.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sky-dived in New Zealand!
Visited the Pryamids of Teotihuacan in Mexico.

Wait, that's two things...

What I Can Share with Hosts

The most I can offer a host is just my friendship. I do not have a lot of knowledge I can impart to others (unless you count knowledge of Lord of the Rings as something worthwhile?), but I do consider myself to be friendly, and have a very positive attitude towards everything.
