About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm planning a road trip around Florida with my cousin Paul from Glasgow.

ABOUT ME

I love to travel and speak French. I like listening to music and going to concerts. I wish I had some musical talent, but I was always better at sports than music. I played soccer for ten years, football, lacrosse, and I was on a crew team.

PHILOSOPHY

«Ça ira» meaning everything will work out/be alright. I'm an optimist, and I think that staying focused and positive can do a lot for the quality of your life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I found out about and grew to love Couchsurfing while I was working and studying in Europe. I've been back in the US for a year now, and hoping to meet some cool Couchsurfers and show my Scottish cousin the American way of life on an roadtrip around Florida in April 2015.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed with Couchsurfing hosts in:
-Amsterdam, The Netherlands
-Budapest, Hungary
-Krakow, Poland
-Munich, Germany
-Zurich, Switzerland
