ABOUT ME

I talk to myself, so ask him.

Ok, he just told me:

I can be pretty random. I like to be spontaneous and I look for humour and fun in everything...except pigeons, bloody flying rats. However, I am pretty organised when it comes to my career and education. I take my studies of Architecture very seriously and I'm constantly thinking, designing and coming up with ideas. Some are silly, some take the piss but some are genuine. I want to make a difference to people's lives but I feel sometimes my brain thinks its a sieve. You are not brain. Work harder.

Other than playing with space, I play guitar, a lot. I love it and have written so many (unfinished) songs. I listen to a lot of music but I'm not allowed an ipod. I won't let myself as I'll lose it. I lose things but they usually find their way back to me. If I meet you ask me about that.

PHILOSOPHY

Variety is the life of spice

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy hosting now I'm back in Edinburgh but its very difficult to find the time as my flatmates and I are in our final year of studies.

WE'RE SORRY BUT WE CAN'T HOST ANYONE AROUND NEW YEAR AS WE ALREADY HAVE A FULL FLAT. But come to Edinburgh for Hogmany cos its the best (and coldest) party you will see this year (until next year)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only couchsurfed myself in Basel and Berlin and went to a CS meeting in Berlin where I met a lot of cool, friendly people.

Centres d'intérêt

Architecture

Making music, writing songs

Playing guitar

Design

Drawing (I do not do enough)

Art (that's not ambiguous) (and that was sarcasm, not 'ambiguous art') (Oh no, too many brackets)

I tell random stories. Random in that I make them up as I go along.

Socialising with my bestest ever friends. This can lead to drinking. British pubs, can't beat them. British beer though, you can.

Two word combos. Basically putting any 2 random words together to see how funny it sounds. You must have my sense of humour to get this, otherwise you're just a nutter.

Words. Words are great.
