CURRENT MISSION

I'd like to think that there doesn't have to be a mission. I like the new. My current mission is to study like hell for Miami. I think one day I'd like to be stardust, but I'll try and take everything as it comes til then.

ABOUT ME

I grew up in London, moved to Oxford for secondary school. I used to travel a lot as a kid, then we kind of ran out of money... I spent an amazing two months in New York a few years back and had a fantastic time meeting new people in a new place, and I hope to be able to impart some of that enthusiasm to the couchsurfing community! Sometimes I'm a lion, sometimes I'm a cub. I'm usually a person. Last year I spent a semester abroad in Miami, which was incredible. Lots of beaches, lots of palm trees, lots of alligators. Very ratchet. I'm headed back on the 14th of August to start my PhD!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Only hosting so far, but I'd like to see parts of America while I'm over there

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had some really fantastic times hosting, like the time we stumbled upon a fireside pirate party by a river under the stars. I've met some really great people; it's always nice to wander through the nature reserve and chat about experiences. There are some real hidden gems in the center of Oxford too!

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess my main area of expertise is in forensics and chemistry, maths and sciency thing. I can teach you how to fold a mean origami parrot or a DNA helix.

I'd love to brush up on my Spanish a bit more - I learned in school but it's coming in handy quite a bit!
