I'm a British entertainment journalist, making my living writing about what's going on the world of entertainment. I'm well-travelled and I love immersing myself in new experiences, and, while I've settled in San Francisco for now, I'm always looking for that new horizon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel for work - a lot - and on a meagre journalist's salary I can't always make the work pay for the travel. I'd much rather be meeting new people than holed up in a hotel, so I get the best of both worlds when I couchsurf!
