32, Scottish 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 - From a small town on the West Coast of Scotland called Greenock.

I’m very chilled and easy to get on with. I enjoy chatting away to people but at the same time, can easily be on my own in a new place, walking around with my camera trying to find the perfect shot 📸

At the moment I am enjoying the sober life. After years of working in the drinks industry I’ve decided to take a break but I still love talking about it! I was a Scotch Whisky Brand Ambassador and still have a passion for it and very curious about seeing rare/unique bottles.

I enjoy running and regularly attend Parkrun. On my travels I’ve been trying to do as many Parkrun’s around the world, so far I’ve completed them in Japan, Australia, & New Zealand.

I was in a band called Knock On Effect (check us out on Spotify!) many years ago and played guitar 🎸

I love trying new activities/experiences and in the last year have tried: scuba diving (PADI Advanced Open Water), surfing, snorkelling, paragliding, parasailing, paramotoring, skydiving, bungy jumping, canyoneering, canyon swing, swimming with dolphins & thresher sharks, whale watching, go karting, kayaking, hiking, glacier helicopter ride/hiking, driving a scooter, e-bike, white water rafting, volunteering….

I love food and often before visiting a new place will watch a food documentary to find the best food spots!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people whilst travelling the world 🌎 I love to hear about people’s cultures and share my own. I’m a very proud Scot and love talking about where I come from.
