Overview
About Me
Travelling has been a passion ever since I can remember. I've lived in West Bromwich and now find myself living in the beautiful city of Dubai.
Always up for meeting new people, experiencing different cultures and sharing life and travel stories.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To engage with people from all over the world and educate myself further on how different cultures, people and countries get on with their day to day lives.
Interests
My interests range from sport to politics to debate on world affairs and very passionate about these subjects.
Used to play semi-professional football (soccer) before "retiring" at 23 for personal reasons, which lead me to no longer loving the sport I had played from the moment I could walk.
Politics and world affairs are massive passion of mine and I feel we can learn masses from sharing political views from all over the world and these subjects can actually unite people when used in the right way.
As an open-minded person I'm always will to participate in healthy debate and learn from other peoples experiences and view in any subject.

Music, Movies, and Books
Love reading autobiographies but not really a fan of fiction. Music isn't really a passion of mine but I do enjoy music that has meaning or I can relate to.
When it comes to movies I love a good theory (e.g Zeitgeist), war films and anything that leaves you questioning our existence or the powers that be.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
As I teach Basic First Aid it gives me great pleasure when I hear that people have saved other peoples lives with the skills I've taught them.
On a more personal level, raising over £3000 (to date) for cancer charities following the loss of my dad to this horrible illness is probably my favorite.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Intelligent conversation, open mindedness, laughter and hopefully leave someone with a smile on their face, which I like to think I can do well.
