CURRENT MISSION

Live life!

ABOUT ME

My name is Jake. I'm 22 years old and I'm from Cornwall, UK. After leaving school and five gap years I've finally decided to study Law and French at Aberdeen. I love life, the world and its people.
I'm not very good at self-promotion but I like to think that I'm a fun, happy, open minded, interesting person.
I'm a vegetarian.

PHILOSOPHY

Hakuna Matata (It means no worriesssss, for the rest of your days)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Could possibly currently host but would have to ask permission of my housemates.

Interests

I enjoy traveling, meeting new people, seeing new things, reading any sort of book, learning languages, science, kayaking, swimming, cliff jumping, rugby, international relations, politics, ethics, philosophy, life, camping, hitchhiking, laughing, debating, foraging, walking. My natural curiosity tends to mean that I'm interested in everything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing a mountain in Andorra and being tucked up in my sleeping bag next to the fire, looking down as cloud enveloped Pas de la Casa and eventually rose to surround us. So bloody cold though!

Getting strip-searched by Serbian border guards.

Thought I was going to be murdered by a guy who turned out to be the nicest truck driver I've ever met!

I can teach you some different vegetarian dishes - I make a mean banoffee pie as well.
