About Me

Im 23, I spent 4 years in Bristol studying Physics and computing, I finished that a year ago and since I've been planning a move away whilst saving money working as a software developer.

This summer I'm moving to Canada with a 2 year visa/work permit. I was attracted by the nature, the snow and all the friendly Canadians i have met. My first stop will be Calgary for a week followed by 2 months volunteering at an off grid lodge in the North West Territories. I cant wait to learn what it feels like to live where there isn't a road for miles, see the northern lights and row across the lake.

In the winter Im heading to Banff or maybe somewhere in BC to snowboard.

Im super chilled and easy going.

I like like to drink, chat, listen to music, dance (especially to techno).

I also like to hike, play basketball and write code.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Will be traveling regularly for the next two years, would be great to meet locals and make friends.
