About Me

I've moved around quite a bit and settled in Cardiff this year. I studied electrical engineering and work developing software now. I enjoy puzzles, games, and learning just about anything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I and my fiancee live in Cardiff and want to meet new people! We have done some traveling but love to hear people's stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Changed to a vegan lifestyle. While the vegan part is something I'd be happy talk about with anyone interested I think the more important part is continually trying to question current and past behaviors and looking for ways to change for the better.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach almost anything electronics or computer related. I play a decent game of Settlers of Catan and a few other board and card games.

What I Can Share with Hosts

All the above and so much else that's very random at times.
