About Me

I am a recent graduate of Durham University and while I still can I am travelling Europe.
My favourite thing to do is make other people laugh, and it puts the biggest smile on my face too (lets just hope I can make whoever I meet laugh :P )

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm still new to this, but having decided to travel on my own I want to meet new people in the cities I visit!
I have also realised how important it is to share your experiences with friends, otherwise visiting new places isn't nearly as fun. So I'm here to make friends :)

While I visit new cities I want to experience the culture, and as a tourist it can be hard to see the real side of the city I'm in. Hopefully meeting people here will enable me to get advice and see the actual city and not just the attractions :)

Interests

I love watching youtube and reading about the human mind, doing so got me interested in neural networks and I decided to pursue a career in research in this area
I spend the rest of my time sleeping, eating and asking questions

Also space is so cool! I want to go one day :)

Music, Movies, and Books

At the moment I am addicted to Hozier
I'll watch any film about Artificial Intelligence and love films with a twist (e.g. Fight Club, The Prestige, Shutter Island)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Played quidditch for Durham University, competed in the national tournament and placed third in the country (also qualified and played in the European quidditch championship)

Teach, Learn, Share

I am fascinated by human intelligence (artificial intelligence will be my field of research starting this September) and welcome discussion on consciousness, free will etc.
I can teach you how to juggle :P
