CURRENT MISSION

To run to the edges of the Earth and back again.

ABOUT ME

I'm 'officially' a medical student but that only takes up a small portion of my time. The rest I spend as an artist and performer, dancing, taking photographs, graphic design, taxidermy, writing music, just about anything and everything. I also make extra pennies as a DJ. I live on an incredibly tight budget to save up as much money as possible for travelling, it's the most important thing to me.
My favourite place to be is in a forest or up on a mountain, but there's also another side to me that loves having crazy parties. Whatever goes, really. Great conversation pleases me above most things and I love meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Live in the present

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've both surfed and had people surf at my place. I have only ever had great experiences and I think this website is awesome. There are some truly brilliant people in the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Fantastic ones. I was once backpacking through Europe, ended up spending one night sleeping under a tree in the park and the next I was couch surfing in the penthouse suite of a rocket scientist - pretty surreal! The best guests I've had were my most recent, a great couple who came over from Seattle. We went out exploring new places in Manchester that week and I had an even better time with them out in the city than I had since I arrived!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've experienced a lot of incredible things in my life that for one, it's hard to do any of them justice, but for two I'd want to spend more time thinking about the most meaningful to share.

Teach, Learn, Share

Hmm.. I'm full of so many random things it's hard to recall. Straight forward things are medicine/biology and photography/photo editing/design. I'm also a great (vegan) cook, and I can do those cool hair wraps. Basic circus skills is another fun thing to learn, for any beginners.
