I'm a 3rd Year architecture student and adopted Northerner in Newcastle upon Tyne. I'm originally from the south-west so when I'm not studying i can usually be found drifting up and down the UK and sometimes further afield. Big fan of weird food, weird experiences, big cities and big mountains.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Fall into every well worn trav-lah stereotype (got the bracelets to prove it) and what consistently draws me back above all else is the intoxicating appeal of meeting such a diverse patchwork of exciting people on a daily basis. I'd like to experience a more immersive side of the places I go so meeting locals seems a good way to start. Also a student loan doesn't go far these days. What's more during the times when I can't go and see the world the world can come and see me.
