Hi! I'm Joe, I'm a 20 year old Adventure Tourism Management student in Fort William, Loving life in the Highlands.

I left school early so that I could work and travel before my degree started. I worked for ten months and travelled solo for 7.5. Travelled in India, Nepal, Thailand and Laos.

I am now in Fort William learning adventure sports and (kinda) studying for a degree.

I think travel is an amazing thing. I think it is far more important to our society than we realise as it creates a "global awareness" in people which leads us to consider lives other than our own and our immediate. It shows us how much more there is outside of our bubble and puts our lives into a perspective.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Because free accommodation is great! And it's a better way to travel. To meet the locals and get an inside look on a place.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Outdoor Sports mainly. I am happy to rock climb with anyone that knows how to climb and I'm happy to go hillwalking with anyone that has a reasonable level of fitness. In fact I'm training to be a mountain guide so guinea pigs welcome!
