About Me

Hi!

I'm Ben, I'm currently on an indefinite bicycle tour!

I'm in the Balkans and Greece this winter 2019/20, mostly with my girlfriend Roseanna. You can see our pictures here if you like: www.instagram.com/roandbenonbikesandstuff

I'm British, super easy going and don't need much in life! I'm vegan and I love to cook!

I'm trying to learn Greek, and speak enough Italian, Spanish and German to order a beer and apologise for not knowing more of the languages

Before leaving the UK in July 2019 I lived in Manchester and worked as a project manager in the local government. Now I write, edit and proofread remotely to keep the travel going as long as possible

I love cycling, the sea, food, nature and books

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Right now I'm on an indefinite bicycle tour around Europe
