Hello! I'm 21 years old and I'm currently working for an engineering company in Bristol, while studying for my Master's in Aerospace Engineering at the University of Surrey. I'm a follower of Christ and enjoy talking about faith.

When I met my friend Daniel in my first year of University, he asked if I wanted to go on a trip in the Summer. I thought: "Why not?". My parents hoped I would think: "That could be dangerous and expensive, so I won't do it.". Alas, I unfortunately had an amazing time and got the travel bug for good. Since then I have organised my own trips and intend to go on a big trip to Latin America at the end of my Master's course.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet people from different cultures so they can recommend places to visit and things to do with the local knowledge that they have. It will give a more authentic experience of the country, rather that just visiting all the touristy hotspots and having a normal holiday. I'm all about the memories to be made on a trip; how boring would it be if everything went smoothly.

(also I want to save as much money as possible so that I can afford to keep going on trips and meeting new people and having new experiences)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For someone who is a very spur-of-the-moment person. I am surprisingly good at organising travelling. Summer of 2025 I had a mammoth task before me. I wanted to visit as many countries as I could and go with friends from home too. This ended up involving planning 4 sets of people to join and leave me at different, pre-defined parts of the trip. I had to be like a needle, looping through the destinations.

It doesn't sound like it's that difficult. But, I had to organise this during full time University and writing my dissertation and working part-time too. What is more impressive than the organising was actually being able to do it. Goodness me, it was not smooth sailing at parts.

The trip was as follows.
- Fly to Kosovo with Daniel and travel around there hitchhiking.
- Solo-travel to North Macedonia for a couple of days and fly to Antalya to continue solo-travelling.
- Zac meets me in Antalya and we go to Alanya to meet Jihan who's on a family holiday there.
- Solo-travel to Nicosia and meet Riley and Michael in Larnaca.
- Travel to Troodos (my goodness, it was not as simple as 3 words. I have a deep hate for the Cypriot transport).
- Fly to Thessaloniki from Paphos with Riley and Michael.
- Solo-travel to Mandraki and attempt an 8 hour hike to the top of Mount Radomir (I only made it half-way. Mountains are big, it turns out).
- Hitchhike from Neochori to Serres.
- Travel to Sofia from Serres to meet Tre.
- Visit The 7 Rila Lakes.
- Travel with Tre to Brasov & Sighisoara in Romania, Chisinau in Moldova, Tiraspol in Transnistria (Pridnestrovie).
- Fly with Tre to Bologna and travel to Rimini, where we explored San Marino before flying back from Rimini to the UK.

This trip was almost a month long. (I also visited Rome, The Vatican & Valletta with Muir a couple days before this).

The shear amount of things that went wrong on this trip and I still made it back safely; I have to give thanks to God for being with me.
