I grew up in Oxford, studied in Cambridge, now living in London. I work in TV post-production providing subtitles for the hard of hearing, and also as writer. I love meeting and chatting to new people. I'm generally clean, polite, and non-awful.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm living out a life-long dream and travelling in the States September/October 2015, on my own at first, and later with my sister, trying to see as much of the country as possible. I'm hoping to meet interesting people and potentially be sheltered for a night.

Planning to return the favour when I'm back in London.

Interests

I love movies, TV, and especially theatre. I enjoy acting and performing, particularly comedy. I read a lot, and wish I had time to do more. I do a lot of walking, either in the countryside or in new cities. I love live music.

Also Candy Crush Saga.
