CURRENT MISSION

To write a charming and witty profile.

ABOUT ME

I'm intimidated by blank biographical spaces...

I've just moved down to London from Manchester and I'm doing my best to enjoy this awesome city while also finding time to work as a doctor in West London.

When I'm not in hospital, I like going to pubs and gigs with friends. When I'm not in London, I like arriving someplace new.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

At the moment I've only ever surfed. I stayed with a few great people in Israel and I spent one emergency night on a couch in Amsterdam when a really friendly host rescued me from a mis-sheduled flight.

Since moving into my new flat in London though I'm hoping to host a few people - it's all about paying back the generosity.

Hostels can be great fun but local people will give you a totally different insight into their city and country. If you want to get a real feel for a place Couchsurfing is definitely the way to go.

Interests

I really like books. I mean all books of pretty much any genre. If it's got a spine and a blurb I will probably try to read it.

Other than that hanging out with friends, drinking tea, art galleries and pointless discussions are fun. I'm also pretty into rock climbing, though my arm strength is that of an 7 year old child so I'm not particularly good.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to play the ukulele very badly - or basic first aid.

I'd really like to learn to play the ukulele less badly....
