ABOUT ME

How to say it all! I'm Tom, I'm currently studying Biology at UEA in Norwich, UK. It's a beautiful city, with so much History and more pubs than any one man could possibly need (the traditional saying is "a church for every week and a pub for every day"). The motorbike has been retired in favour of a bicycle, but I got over three and a half thousand miles of the nicest places in Europe on it first. When I'm not studying, biking, drinking or being a general geek, I can usually be found shooting up some foam in my garden (AKA Archery).

PHILOSOPHY

I don't know where I'm going yet, but I want to be happy on the way

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Staying with locals seems to me to be the best way to truly experience a culture, especially with such a limited amount of time in each city. Now I've been travelling, I'd love to meet and host travellers when possible as a thank you for an unforgettable experience

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed with many lovely people throughout Europe, and met a few of the Norwich couchsurfers too

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music, my only criteria is that pleasing to my ears! At the moment, mostly symphonic metal, jazz, classical, electronica and industrial. I'm a big fan of classic comedy and epic fantasy on the screen, and love a good, thick space opera on paper.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
