Hi there! I'm Ben. I'm really outgoing and I love to meet new people and see new places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I recently had my first experience of couchsurfing travelling around Belgium and France. I met so many wonderful people, and hosting seems like a great way to keep meeting fun people until I get to go away on another adventure.

Interests

I enjoy most sports, both watching and playing as I like being active. I quite regularly go to pub quizzes with my friends as we enjoy the intellectual challenge (and the beer!), my favourite categories being TV, films, science, music and sports.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a lot of rock and indie music (special mentions for Fleetwood Mac and Arctic Monkeys) but I'm open minded and like all sorts of genres.

In terms of movies I love the Back to the Future movies, LOTR, Hot Fuzz, Star Wars and Guardians of the Galaxy to name a few.

I've just finished reading the A Song of Ice and Fire books, on which Game of Thrones is based. I only picked them up last summer after watching the show first, but once I started I couldn't put them down!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quite recently I went on stage with Derren Brown and he made me levitate!

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy learning about different cultures and like learning more about people from different walks of life.
I studied Physics at university and I'd be more than happy to talk about it with anyone with a curious mind!
I can also play guitar, who doesn't enjoy a good sing along?!
