Overview
About Me
I'm originally from Leeds (north of England) and live in London. I work in trade finance at a UK bank. I have an international background and outlook, having travelled extensively and also lived in Colombia, Denmark, Austria and Saudi Arabia.
I have a typical English sense of humour and always see the funny side of life. I enjoy socialising over good food and drinks, and love nothing more than exploring a good museum, book or film.
Ich spreche Deutsch y hablo español.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I've been lucky enough to enjoy many cultural exchanges to get outside of my comfort zone, and learn about the world around me (and myself too). I'm looking to continue that through Coach Surfing. I'm sociable, chatty and cultured and value those qualities in others.
