CURRENT MISSION

Teaching English in China - and travelling Asia in my free time!

ABOUT ME

I volunteer almost obsessively, I'll try almost anything once, and I'm working on my Inter-Cultural Fluency. I would love to cook you a meal :)

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe Diem.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mainly looking to just meet people, but open to hosting/surfing too!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have hosted some surfers in the UK, and surfed in China :)

Interests

Food & drink (making and consuming!)
Events (running, attending, analyzing...)
Visiting places of Historical/Cultural/Natural significance.
Outdoor pursuits (esp. Snowboarding, rock-climbing & horse-riding, but NOT hunting/fishing).
Long late-night storytelling sessions and debates about serious topics I am not well-informed in to win.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting and volunteering with refugees on the Jordanian/Syrian border - and almost getting bombed!

Teach, Learn, Share

Come to Coventry and learn:
> Some local history about an almost forgotten City;
> Where a secret river is that 90% of locals don't even know about!
> All about the history of transportation, manufacture, and Coventry's key part in WWII;
> About the history and philosophy of 2-Tone Music, invented right here in Coventry;

Come to Coventry and experience:
> FOOD. I guarantee to help any open-minded surfer try at least one entirely new food!
> An International Student community. Over 5,000 International Students live in Coventry, and at any one time 1-4 of them live in our house, so don't expect to socialize just with Brits!
> The International City of Peace - Coventry is twinned with over 20 cities around the world, and we can't wait to show you around;
> The MOST CENTRAL City in England, with fab transport links to the rest of the UK - and if you're hear long enough, at least one roadtrip somewhere else!
