I have had the privilege to call many places 'home' over the years: London, Munich, Brno, Edinburgh, and most recently, Oban (on the west coast of Scotland). Right now, 'home' is moving with me, as my life is in boxes and I am living out of my duffel bag with my partner Sofie. The big plan is to move to Norway but, before that, my partner Sofie and I are travelling together on an adventure of our dreams to Patagonia.

When not travelling, I work as a teacher during autumn - spring. I have taught maths at a secondary school in London, English as a foreign language in Czech Republic and, most recently, Education Studies at a university. In summer I work as a hiking guide in the Scottish Highlands and the Alps.

I love spending time outdoors in any capacity, but am most passionate about running and climbing. I try to run a marathon or two each year and one or two longer ultras.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

To arrive in a foreign place, wide-eyed and tired from travel, and be met with such incredible generosity and kindness from someone you've never met before is such an amazing feeling. After every CS experience I am continually reassured about the goodness in people. I have surfed quite a lot in different countries around the world and only had positive experiences. I have also hosted as much as I have been able to, but would love to do more in the future!

音乐、电影和书籍

I am in a book club with some mates. Choices have ranged from Stoner to In Patagonia to Catch 22. It's a great laugh and motivator to expand our horizons on all different genres of literature.

Favourite music- John Grant, Efterklang, Bonobo, Tracy Chapman, James Blake, Ben Howard, Mumford & Sons, Moderat, M83, Gold Panda, Gil Scott-Heron, Daughter, Flying Lotus, Bob Marley, Ben Harper, Broken Bells, Jon Hopkins, Caribou, Classic FM when I get back from a busy day or BBC Radio 6 for new music. Le Mellotron is my favourite radio station at the moment - they are based in Paris and play some really eclectic music. A fellow couchsurfer introduced me to them!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Hitch-hiked around northern Norway and headed out on a boat where we saw the Lofoten Islands rise steeply up from the ocean.

Roadtripped around the Westfjords, Iceland.

Hiked on the Pacific Crest Trail and woken up by a large animal (read: bear or mountain lion) at midnight, having not seen anyone on the trail all day.

教，学，和分享

I can teach you how to cook some pretty tasty vegan food.

I run most mornings - you're more than welcome to join!

If anyone can help my appalling yoga capabilities then I'll be a willing student.
