CURRENT MISSION

A recent graduate finding my place!

ABOUT ME

Hej!

I'm Ben and I've lived in or close to Manchester pretty much all of my life. I love the city but I also love new places so I'm well travelled too.

I'm a generous person and easy to get along with. I have more interests than I can count so we're sure to have no shortage of conversation. I think I'm quite pessimistic, but that's not to say I'm unhappy by any means. I just hate to set myself up for disappointment when I set my expectations high. I like to be pleasantly surprised!

PHILOSOPHY

It's pretty cliche, but works for me: Treat others as you'd have them treat you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with a friend in America and she introduced me to CS. I had a few amazing stays in Chicago and made a true friend straight away. Great times and more to come I hope.

Interests

Filling my head with music. I DJ and drum semi-professionally around Manchester and like a little bit of most things. I grew up on rock and metal and I'm finding myself getting more and more into electronica and contemporary jazz of late.

I love to see new parts of the world when I can afford to, as nothing beats the feeling of admiring the beauty that is found in fresh places and faces.
