About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Currently traveling Europe.

ABOUT ME

I write and perform poetry. I sing the occasional song. I was in a metal band for 5 years when I was 18. Now it's just me and an acoustic guitar.

Last year I moved to Paris. I didn't have a job and couldn't speak the language, I just booked two nights in a hotel room and just saw what happened. I ended up getting a job in a bar and staying there for 6 months :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment, I am planning a jaunt across Europe, seeing new cities, old cities, seeing old friends and making new ones.

I am currently back in my hometown, and have a couch to spare. It's not the most happening town, but it's only and hour from London by direct train. Also it's in a good, central location so perfect for anyone travelling through.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None as yet, although I stayed with a guy in Paris who was involved in CS (met him through a different website). I stayed at his for three weeks while I found somewhere more permanent. He was a really friendly guy who helped me out loads
