About Me

23 year old Scotsman, originally from Glasgow :)

I have been travelling for a long time, around three years!

I love to explore our wonderful planet and share the adventure with new friends.

I travelled the UK for 2 years, hitchhiking and playing music in the street, it truly was the best time of my life.
I met so many amazing people who were so generous, sharing their time, food, homes and families!
I picked up odd jobs here and there and stayed in different towns for up to a couple of months sometimes.

Then I met the most amazing family. I worked as an Au pair for them for 6 months in England before the emigrated to South Africa.
They called me from South Africa and asked me to spend a year with them over there! They paid for my flights and expenses and I have enjoyed nearly a year in the sunshine, on the beach, learning to surf and skateboard, caring for the children when they get home from school, but this just involves walks on the beach, swimming in the ocean and having fun.

In between Au pairing I volunteer in poorer African countries, teaching English and Music.

I come back from South Africa to the UK in December.

I have been so blessed since I made the decision to leave home three years ago and I am always looking for oppertunities to give some of the kindness I have been shown back into the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make some new friends, I love to travel and want to meet new people that's it

Interests

I'm interested in most music (learning music also if you can teach me!!), films and anything new. I like awesome landscapes and scenery especially. I am learning about different religions I love Buddhist philosophy so far.
I sleep in the street if there is no hostels available although try to avoid the streets and get to wooded areas

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music, but who doesn't? I travel with a ukulele, which I love to play and share.

I love Tarantino films, surreal films, sci-fi, old french movies and a wide range of genres, always interested in your favourite movie!

I love story books and philosophy, poetry and prose.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quit my 9-5 job and leave my home in an attempt to expand my consciousness and make connections to the world we are all part of.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some ukulele if you are interested!
If you have anything creative you could teach me would love this :)
