Hey, I'm Josh. I am a very laid back, approachable and friendly person. I love to socialise and meet new people. I have recently become a teacher of English as a second language. I studied in Austria and have worked in Spain, and due to the TEFL life I am able to have time free to explore during the summer.

I have a passion for Photography, I take my camera everywhere with me. This doesn't mean I am an apt photographer, I just enjoy taking photos and sharing the (ones I think are) good ones. I have and instagram which holds the same name as when I wanted to push my photography as a business. @joshdotphotography so you can have a look there if you're interested.

Also, I enjoy writing; as I have begun my travelling experience and have started to visit more countries, I have started a blog. www.smallworldtraveller.com

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Two main reasons, probably popular on here (I haven't looked through profiles before writing my profile) are: 
one, meeting new people. As I said before I am a social human being and would love to meet as many people as possible. 
And two, travelling is expensive, I spent all my money living in Austria, studying, and I want to make my money go as far as possible.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am very into music, and have an eclectic array of Spotify playlists that I listen to. My one true love is Drum and Bass however, at the moment I am exploring the different areas of house, from the bassline of the UK to the more techno influenced, melodic European house. I grew up on pop-punk and emo-rock which I still have a soft spot for. Also, I appreciate the hip hop and rap, current and old, UK and USA. One area I want more exposure to is non-english music, which I think hosts might

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I wouldn't go as far as to say I have done anything amazing, I have met lots of amazing people and shared lots of amazing experiences. However, before all of this travelling business, I was in sales. Team building and ice-breakers were a big part of that life. One in particular was/is 2 truths one lie. So you can play if you want.
One, I have driven a 72 tonne articulated lorry. 
Two, I have swam with dolphins 
Three, I have sky dived.

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't really understand this section; you are more than welcome to ask me questions about anything I have written.

What I Can Share with Hosts

What I Can Share with Hosts
I can help with English; as a teacher I can definitely share my knowledge.
Exposure, I am sure I will meet a multitudinous amount of amazing people, and who I would like to write about and photograph (with their permission) and therefore they would gain exposure.
