I study Politics and International Relations at the University of Aberdeen. I would love to travel the world and meet new people :)

I grew up in Fife, Scotland and lived there my entire early life. I moved to Aberdeen aged 17 and have loved the decision. Meeting new people from around the world has been incredible, especially discovering how different cultures behave and approach significant issues in society.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people and immerse myself in different cultures :)

I have been on quite a few holidays but they have always been the standard hotel experiences. I want to experience the lesser known elements of cities around the world and try my hand at unique opportunities.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’d like to think a reasonably skilled cooking partner as well as someone who will gladly listen to all of your stories. Additionally, someone who is willing to try almost any exciting activity you suggest.

I love discussing political and philosophical ideas and I am very open to new ideas whenever they are shared with me. I think it’s extremely important to listen to the experiences/viewpoints of others to better my understanding of the world.
