Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I am beginning my career in design, and moving to a new city. I want to meet people, and see new things.
ABOUT ME
I am 23 and have just graduated from Sheffield Hallam University. I love Sheffield and love design. Since finishing uni I stayed in Sheffield and have been applying for design jobs, seeing friends, and generally having a lot of fun! I have just got my design first job in Weybridge and am now moving to Addlestone. I'm easy going, I work hard, I care about what I do. I love to meet new people, and am very sociable. I love to have a laugh!!
PHILOSOPHY
Change is good! (thanks Chris...)
I believe that you can learn from everything, so the more you do and the more people you meet, the more you learn about the world and yourself...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Although I am unable to have anyone over to couch surf, I do want to meet new people. My current housemate who does have couch surfers round suggested I join to meet new people when I move to my new job.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I haven't yet - I'm a newby!
Interests
Obviously I am interested in design, but I also love photography, especially of architecture, old industrial buildings, street art, graff, and any combitations of those things! I love my music too and am always up for listening to something new. I love meeting new people and trying new things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
As rubbishe as it may seem to other people on here, my amazing thing is getting my first at uni. I never thought I'd be able to complete uni, let alone get a first. But I told myself after a year out, I wasn't going unless I got a first. And I did...
Amazing thing seen?? Manufactured Landscapes... Watch it. It'll make you think, seriously.
Teach, Learn, Share
Erm, I'm not sure I can really teach anything about the area I'm moving to, but I can share my knowledge of my studied subject at uni and my interests in the things I've already stated. I can also tell people all about the amazing city of Sheffield and hook people up with couch surfers there. It's a brilliant place!
