Hi, I'm Finnley! I've been lucky enough to live in the wonderful, green city of Sheffield in the UK surrounded by the hills, moors and crags of the Peak District all my life. However, I've Just finished my A-Levels and looking to take a couple of years out before uni to explore the world around me, make some stories and hopefully figure out what I'm about along the way! I'm fascinated by anything biology, specifically plant science and mycology so being immersed in nature naturally captivates my attention. I love wild camping and ultralight backpacking because it gives me a (currently unmatched) sense of freedom and responsibility. I am a generally quiet and gentle person but love in-depth conversations about anything. I can fit in with whatever plans you might have if I come stay with you :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a great way to meet new people, explore new cultures and save a bit of money along the way.
