About Me

I am a medical student taking a year out from my studies because there is just so much out there that I haven't done and I have always had the urges to go travel but never had the time.

In my year out I plan to visit NZ to mountain bike and Japan to snowboard. I am very excited for this year and want to make the most of it before returning to my studies.

I love the outdoors, I like to cook, I am always keen to learn new skills, I enjoy reading and meeting new friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all sorts of music. I play drums and enjoy big band and jazz for this reason. I also play violin and have an appreciation for classical music. However, if I am on a night out I enjoy house and electronic music. I must admit that in my spare time I predominantly listen to electronic music.

I am currently reading Sapiens and plan to reading the next book Homo-deus by Yurval Noah Harari.

I enjoy crime films and comedies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently completely the National 3 peaks challenge in 19 hours 58 minutes with 3 friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy to exercise and would love to get everyone involved in any daily activities, such as going out on mountain bikes. I have a lot of experience riding bikes, and would hopefully be able to pass on useful tips.

I am always wanting to learn new things and would greatly appreciate anything a host has to share with me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I enjoy cooking, the outdoors and going out, if a host would like to join me for a good time then I would always be up for that! If the hosts wants any help with anything around the house I am also a good handyman who would be willing to help with any issues.
