CURRENT MISSION

To see, smell, taste and cherish as many states in America this summer as possible

ABOUT ME

I am a 21 year old Student spending his summer of 2014 travelling all over the US. I hope to write, take photos, meet new friends and explore cultures vastly different to my own. I am a student, graduating next year and hoping to go to Graduate acting school here or in London. I am also an aspiring poet, and hope to act as a career. I love to intertwine nature aesthetics and human emotion in my writings, and whilst my photography is a working progress and very mediocre, I enjoy taking black and white photos. I am a big sports fan, playing a great deal of soccer, and enjoy good food, drink, company and literature.

PHILOSOPHY

Take the good for the good, disregard the bad. I always look to see the inherent good in people.

Liberal, I feel strongly about racial, sexual and LGBT equality. Life is way too short to waste hating.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently zooming around USA and Canada and having an incredible time ! I have done about 15 states so far and I have met so many good friends, had so many surreal crazy experiences, and all in all it has been an awesome summer ! Compared to some, I am a newbie at this Couchsurfing game ! But, when I get home from my travels, I would also love to try my hand at being a host, showing people a good time in Brighton and in London !
