About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To visit every country possible and experience it from a non touristy point of view.

ABOUT ME

Hey,

I am a pretty outgoing guy who loves to travel and would like to see the WHOLE world for what it is. (I love to try and escape tourists and experience the reality of a country)

I am a graduate of BSc. Geography and MA in Geography Education and I am currently teaching Geography here in this beautiful country of El Salvador while experiencing this place for what it is! If you would like to join me in doing so... get in touch. I have a house here in a good location situated beneath San Salvador Volcano within easy reach of some of the best surf beaches in the world and some local night out spots.

Get in touch...

PHILOSOPHY

I have a huge interest in different cultures and learning about places from different peoples points of view (this is why I think couch surfing is a unique opportunity to do this!).

Carpe diem.. Make the most out of everyday!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I look for places to stay and people to meet on my travels around the world. I have couch surfed in both both Italy and Indonesia and I am now looking to host here in El Salvador :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Last year I had an epic time exploring the islands of Indonesia while staying with locals during my stay. I learnt so much about the food, music and geography of the country and loved every minute of it. Indonesia without a doubt has the most lovely and welcoming couch surfers in the world..

Two summers ago I stayed with couch surfing legends Davide and friends in Bari, Italy. It was the best first time couch surfing experience. We hung out with a few beers in the beautiful city before I moved onto Montenegro.
