Overview
About Me
Currently in the middle of a 31 day interrailing trip with my girlfriend. Absolutely loving it so far! Recently discovered couch surfing and we thought we'd give it a go!
My plan for next year is to take a road/surf trip through South & Central America, visiting Chile & Peru, Costa Rica & Nicaragua and wherever else I can!
I've been working for the last few years as an injury rehab therapist for various professional rugby teams. I'm currently debating whether to continue in this line of work or to change career completely to become a firefighter. Or leave England behind for a year working holiday...
Who knows what I'll be doing in a few months time!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Currently interrailing around Europe and was introduced to the idea of couch surfing by someone I met along the way. I love the concept and hopefully will be able to meet some cool people and get that local knowledge!

Music, Movies, and Books
My music collection is pretty varied but at the moment I'm listening to a lot of BB King, John Mayer, J Dilla, Slum Village, Ben Howard & Tom Misch. Also got to plug my little brother's band The Velvet Hands!
My absolute favourite book that gave me serious wanderlust is Barbarian Days: A Surfing Life. I highly recommend it to everyone who likes to travel, even if you have no clue about surfing!
A few of my favourite movies are: I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night, Interstellar, Collateral & The Lego Movie.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I was lucky enough to work with New Zealand Rugby League through their World Cup campaign in 2013. I got to run out behind the team at Old Trafford in the final against Australia and even got a bit of TV time!
