Hello! Hola! Bonjour!

My name is Ryan! I was born in the United Kingdom on the 11th of August 1994. I have lived my entire life in Surrey which is about an hour south of London. I finished University in 2015 and started working as a Financial Consultant at a multi-national Company. The one good thing that came out of this is that I discovered my passion for traveling/backpacking! Less then two years after getting the job, I bought a one way ticket to Colombia because hey! Life is short and I never want to regret the things I didn't do!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet awesome people from around the world!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all types of music... although not to keen when screaming is involved! Although my favorite would have to be jazz or the blues!

Again I love all kinds of films... however being from a proud Scottish family, Braveheart has a very special place in my life! The Godfather 1 and 2 are masterpieces... lets not talk about The Godfather 3.... I hate horror movies... but I love the fact that I hate them... unfortunately there aren't that many good horror movies about :(.

I love to read, but I find it difficult to find the time because I work alot. I'm not sure I have a favorite book, I tend to to re-read books... but I recently finished reading The Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship of the Ring, The Art of War and Alamut!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently decided to quit my job and abandon the pursuit of a 'regular' life... leaving the 9-5 lifestyle and bought a one way ticket to Bogota Colombia!
