Dear hosts, My name is Christopher, and I've decided that life is far too short to spend the rest of my twenties in corporate life as a Chartered Accountant, so from August 2015 I'll be travelling the world for one year, heading in a generally easterly direction from my hometown of London, UK. It is my intention to have many adventures, and meet as many new and interesting characters along the way as I can. I've had my own home and shared with others for many years now and am considerate and sociable. I'll be happy to share my stories and would love to hear yours. Although a place sleep and wash is the basic necessity, I am looking to maximise my experience by having the benefit of local knowledge , and would love to hang out with my hosts and check out their favourite places together. I am however more than happy to wander off on my own.
