About Me

ABOUT ME

As i get older i find myself wanting to see more of the world and experience different places. I've done some traveling, spent a year in Australia and New Zealand and now i'm happy to be back in North Devon, a beautiful part of the world and call it home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My friend introduced me to couchsurfing and i thought 'WOW' what a great idea. I started off by going to some CS meetings and events when i was down under and then i couchsurfed a couple of times in Adelaide and Tasmania.

Everyone i seemed to have met through CS has such a positive spirit with participating in the CS idea and it's this i think that keeps it going and makes it an unmissable experience for anyone. I've met some really great people willing to show me around their local area, take me to some fantastic places and give an unforgettable trip you probably can't get from a travel agency or guide book.
