Hey! My name is Rob, aka "The Travelling Beard" and I'm 28. I currently live in Glasgow, Scotland. Started travelling in February 2017 and still travelling as much as possible. I'm a peaceful, fun loving guy who loves to take on a challenge! I'd say I love to face challenges head on because at the end of the day, you only live once!

You can also find me on Instagram. Search for..... "The Travelling Beard".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing to help get away/disappear from the uk and would love to see every country in the world 😆 So far, I've hosted many travellers, had zero issues and hopefully it will continue to be like this!!
I once had a really bad week living in Glasgow. I wasn't in the mood to do anything. I was basically just over worked and felt really tired and decided to meet a Couchsurfer for a drink and in that very moment, after chatting for at least 10-15 minutes, I felt great/amazing and haven't looked back since. I love helping out other travellers as much as I can handle as I know how stressful it can be when stranded in a foreign country. It's happened a few times to me ha.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Charity cycle from lands end to john o'groats! Was an incredible experience and would do it again in a heart beat!
