CURRENT MISSION

Meet more people and see more places.

ABOUT ME

I'm 24, and at the moment I'm in East London working for the British Red Cross. I'm pretty chilled, open minded, sociable and easy going. If you surf with me then I'll be happy to take you out and show you the sights of Hackney Wick, few that they are but with many stops at pubs and bars in between.

I love to read and have a big passion for film, especially classic 80's movies. Im trying to transfer my love of film and extreme sports into some decent video editing skills at the moment but am still working on it. Hopefully some extra time in premier pro will eventually yield some good results!

I also love rock climbing and hopefully will be going down on another trip to the Verdun Gorge in S. France this summer so I'd be happy to chat with anyone for hours about that. Oh and on a last note I'm super keen on snowboarding and skiing, having previously done a season in Meribel.

PHILOSOPHY

"Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence." - C. S. Lewis.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Teach: I can teach english possibly, although i dont know how great a teacher I'd be and I'd be able to show you a few songs on the ukulele. I'm trying to learn the harmonica at the moment so i could share some of the basics on that too. :)

Learn: I'd love to learn another language or instrument if anyone can teach them, although I'm not that great a pupil haha.

Share: I love sharing travel stories and hearing other peoples. They are so fascinating!
