About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Adventure!

ABOUT ME

I love being in the outdoors, being active keeps me happy. I really enjoy meeting new people and experiencing new cultures. Random adventures are what I live for.

PHILOSOPHY

I am not sure I have a fully realised philosophy, I just float along, trying to make the best decisions I can and try to be a positive influence on other peoples lives.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have not yet participated in CS, I am just starting a 7 month trip around South America, so it would be great to meet some people/stay on some couches whilst I am here.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have enjoyed the hospitality of many of my friends from around the world, and many have stayed at my house as well.
