About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Do as many things and see as many places as possible, it's the perfect time to do it.

ABOUT ME

Most people would say i'm a pretty chilled, easy-going kind of guy. I enjoy having a laugh with my friends whether it's out on a night, relaxing with some beers or just being out and about. I enjoy sport, mostly football (or soccer!) but am way too competitive for my own liking. I enjoy music, films and occasionally (very occasionally) a good book.

PHILOSOPHY

Travel as much as you can whilst you're young because you might not get the chance when you get older. Life's too short to not see the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm hoping to participate by surfing as much as possible in the next few months and hopefully repaying the favour to people in the future should I end up living somewhere people want to visit.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None so far, hopefully that will change soon!

Interests

I spend most of my time either just being with my friends, going out and having a good time or listening to music/watching films. In my opinion there's nothing better than going to see your favourite band play live or watching the film you've been waiting for on the big screen. I also love football with a passion. Whenever there's the chance to watch some good premier league football on tv or to go to the match and watch my local team I'm there.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Erm I guess the most amazing thing so far was spending new years eve 2012/2013 in times square in New York. It'd been a pretty tough last few months and just to be able to experience that with my family who flew over to see me was just incredible.

Interailing around Europe for a month with two of my closest friends was incredible. We traveled round Turkey, Bulgaria, Serbia, Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic and Austria. I got to see some really cool cities and catch up with a friend i'd met in Canada which was great! i'd definitely recommend seeing Budapest!

There's been some over great experiences too, like being on exchange at the university in waterloo, ontario for the year. I had the chance to meet some really cool people from all over the world and it was just been of the best times of my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not really a man of many skills to be honest! if anyone's looking to play football I can always help out with that. Other than that I guess I can just offer interesting conversation and a fair bit of fun.
