Overview
About Me
Hey there, I hope your well if you're reading this! Young buck looking for a real human being to make memories with and place to kip. I have had some life altering experiences in Asia and Europe on Couchsurfer. I love the community and the traveller vibe that everyone I have met and stayed with has (in abundance). I would really appreciate a stay and I can repay in humour, drink and entertainment, namely music on my part.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Looking to meet new people and to have great experiences in new places.
The couchsurfing community in Asia was so kind to me, and I hope I can repay this institution meeting people around the world and treating them with the same respect and kindness that I have recieved from our brothers and sisters.
