About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore, meet new people & learn...

ABOUT ME

I'm a positive, outgoing guy who loves traveling, meeting new people, and having fun!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've met up with a few couchsurfers on my travels... Unfortunately I can't host - but have met up with people visiting London...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Relative beginner!

Interests

I love to travel and experience different cultures. My most recent trip was to India – spent 6 weeks there and really fell in love – I think it’s a fascination that will stay with me for ever. Planning on going to South East Asia this winter – really can’t wait!

I’m a sociable person – I always relish the chance to meet new people. Hence joining Couchsurfing!

I Studied History at University – my passion for this subject has endured and has a pretty significant influence on my travel plans.

I love sports – especially cricket, football, rugby and American football.

Music, movies & reading are vey important to me…
