About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see the world. Is that too cliche?

ABOUT ME

Apparently I have a posh accent, but I don't think so. I grew up in England, and up to the age of 18 only travelled to Wales and France, which of course meant that I was left wanting to see the rest of the world. Which I'm doing now.

PHILOSOPHY

Not to put things off. If you want to do something, you should do it now. And that you regret what you don't do more than what you do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't participated yet, but I will. really.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Got told about Couchsurfing by a Swedish guy in the Philippines, and I am planning to use it as much as possible in the next 5 months. I'm looking forward to meetin people who live all over the world.

Interests

Travelling, obviously. um, anything really, as long as it's with friends... going out, shopping, eating, drinking, the usual!

Music, Movies, and Books

indie music, and anything kind of weird and interesting. Most books, apart from chick flick books and sci-fi. Most movies too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Saw sea turtles hatching in the Philippines, watched the sun rising over Bali with hundreds of dolphins jumping around us. I'm also about to do the trans-siberian express which has got to rate highly too!

Teach, Learn, Share

If you go to China, spend as much time out of the cities as possible.
Try to speak to as many locals as possible, even if it's just to say hello in the local language, it'll make your trip much more interesting.
Go to the Philippines and Mongolia - the most underrated countries.
