Overview
About Me
I am 28 years old and have travelled most of the world, helpeing at various projects across the globe for short periods. I'm currently travelling South America.
I'm originally from the UK where I used to work as a children's activity co ordinator organising after school clubs and summer camps for children aged 3-12. I also have a strong love for sport (mainly football) and have been involved in almost every sport you can think of for as long as I can remember.
For the last 3 years I have lived in Australia and Asia, taking on many different job roles including; gardening, construction, air-con/ satellite installation, woman's football coach, waiter and bar staff. I also volunteered at a snake rescue and rehabilitation centre for 1 week in northern Thailand.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet people from different walks of life and share experiences, and learn about different cultures and ways of thinking and living.
Interests
My main hobbies would definitely be sport, and taken up almost every sport at some point in my life, but my main love since the age of 5 has been football, and I have played and coached at others at a variety of different levels.
My next interest would probably be travel, and have covered most of the world taking part in a variety of volunteer projects ( most recent teaching English in Columbia)
My next interest is a bit cliché, but would probably say meeting new people and seeing how other people live. Aside from personal entertainment and personal enjoyment, I like the company of others and seeing how other people think and live is a real eyeopener and thoroughly enriching.
I would also say music is a big part of my life, and have real eclectic tastes covering most genres past and present

Music, Movies, and Books
Have no particular favourite genre, but like everything from hip hop to rock, Indy to reggae, techno to house. Favourite movie is tricky, have no real favourite will just list a few that are up there; Goodfellas, City of God, Heat, Blood diamond, shawshank redemption, training day. Favourite book again is a tricky 1, again no singular favourite, but love a good biography
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Teaching underprivileged children in Colombia was not an amazing thing, but was one of the most personally enriching and satisfying things I've done with my life up to now.
