I live 4 miles between Watford (home of Harry Potter Studios) & St Albans.

I rent a small flat close to local bus route. If you are looking to be close to central London my place is not ideal but if you want some peace and relaxation feel free to get in touch.

Contact me if your in the area and want to hang out, have good conversation over a drink or a local walk into nature.

I love travelling and meeting new people. Please be in contact if you enjoy any of the activities listed in my profile.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best way to experience a place is to stay with a local.
