I love meeting new people and finding out their take on the world, making new friends and discovering different cultures to my own - and I love dogs!

I'm all about expanding my horizons, learning new things and stepping outside of my comfort zone. If you just go and sit on a beach for two weeks you never learn anything new about the world or about yourself.

I love rugby, cricket, photography and aviation, and especially history! Any combination of the above will make a dream holiday!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet people across the world, find out new things, discover fun stuff to do in other places. The best way to really learn about a place to to talk to the people, otherwise you're just looking through a window.
