CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy Saudi Arabia and its unique culture as much as I can

ABOUT ME

I'm living in Riyadh and hope to make an impact personally and professionally in the city and district that I'm living in. I want to get to know as many people as I can here over the next year, regardless of their background.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Once I move out of the hotel I'm in I hope to be able to offer a couch for people to stay on. I'm not sure who to expect, as tourist visas aren't readily available here, but I hope to welcome some people nonetheless. I've never been able to host people before, but all being well I can start now. I also hope to meet some CSers for food, drink and fun activities in Riyadh.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Helped organise some couch surfing weekends in France, on one occasion letting out an entire youth hostel (50+ bed) to couch surfers for a weekend!

Interests

I love sports, football, rugby, tennis, and also outdoor pursuits such as hiking and climbing and kayaking.

I enjoy living in different places and exploring little known areas and meeting people from all around the world and being able to communicate with them in my language or theirs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lots to mention here, but climbing Huayna Potosi (6088m) and visiting many of the mosques in Istanbul rank highly!

The Treasury at Petra and the Grand Canyon are two of the most inspiring man made and natural wonders that I have ever seen.
