I’m a cheeky lad who loves adventuring around the world. I grew up in Surrey, UK and studied Physics at the University here. I worked as a physicist, programmer and as a tutor. I love meeting people and exploring places and doing pretty much anything, whether that be hiking, chatting, walking around or really any kind of activity. I usually travel by hitchhiking and I find it the most fun way to travel, although occasionally I take public transport. I'm also learning the Celtic Low Whistle which I've been playing with since leaving England this year. I recently travelled around South Asia 🇦🇫 🇵🇰 🇮🇳 🇳🇵 , the Caucasus 🇬🇪 🇦🇲 and some parts of Europe 🇩🇪🇮🇪🇵🇱🇺🇦🇨🇿, and now I’m on another journey again! I started travelling from the UK Eastwards and I've made it as far as Japan (although I did have to fly over Iran and China). From here I plan to go to Taiwan and then see where the boats take me from there 🇮🇩🇳🇿🇦🇺🇫🇯🇻🇳🇸🇬.After I come back I can’t wait to host people and show you all around London! Other things I’ve done recently: Hitchhiked around Ireland 🇮🇪 Fisherman’s trail in Portugal 🇵🇹 Kumano Kodo in Japan 🇯🇵 Volunteered at a festival in Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 Hitchhiked all over the northern areas of Pakistan 🇵🇰 Volunteered for a bit in Chernihiv, Ukraine 🇺🇦 Travelled all over Germany with the Deutschlandticket 🇩🇪

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
To explore the world and meet lovely people! The best experiences I had travelling ever were with Couchsurfing, and I feel a real connection to a place when I get to meet local people there and understand the culture and society :) I heard about Couchsurfing a while ago but I only signed up very recently. Before this I was staying at random ppl’s houses. For example my first night in Afghanistan I spent in a mud house in northern Kandahar with the Taliban and a bunch of farmers. It was a fun experience! I’m excited to meet locals from different cities and learn about your cultures, and I’m excited for you guys to come to the UK so I can show you all around Surrey and London!
Musique, films et livres
Everything, pretty much I like all kinds of Music, my favourite might be Rock, Classical or Folk idk :) For movies I usually like horror movies, or historical films For books I love to read everything, and my favourite book is the Shahnamah, because it contains many beautiful stories. And I’m always open to book recommendations!
Une chose incroyable que j'ai faite
Hitchhiked all over Ireland 🇮🇪

Mes centres d'intérêt
Banter and having a good time. My main interest is Physics but I really like to read about ancient and medieval history, especially from Britain or anywhere in Asia. And I also like to read about philosophy, especially from antiquity and even more so from outside Greece I’m also very curious about different cultures all over the world, and I like their music, clothing, beliefs, history, lifestyle and interactions with neighbouring peoples. And of course I’m very interested in travelling, usually by hitchhiking, all over the world ;)
