CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world and meet all the awesome people out there. Also to try all sorts of different foods, you'd be surprised what is actually 100% delicious.

PHILOSOPHY

You never know if you'll get another chance, so take a shot. What's the worst that could happen?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My experiences with CS have been great, I've met some amazing people who've really improved my travelling experience and made me feel at home. I've also met up with some people in random cities where I didn't know anyone, they showed me round and kept me company, it was very nice.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have stayed with a few people on my travels, and I've had nothing but wonderful hosts. All the experiences were incredible. I was made to feel very welcome, and my stay was always much more personal. I really felt like I was a local, even if it was just for the length of my stay.

I've also hosted a few people, and was able to help some out at the last minute. One ended up staying for a week, and was a very pleasant and considerate guest, it was a pleasure to have her! It was interesting getting to know her.

The flat always feels a little empty when guests have gone, so I'm looking forward to hosting more people!
