Overview
About Me
I am open minded, incredibly sporty and love to travel and adventure to new places! I am very positive and get on with anyone i come across!
Living life as a sheep is not my style. Following the herd of people in a career is not how our short life should be spent! Get out and adventure while your body lets you!
I travel a lot mostly for pleasure but also have worked in Burkina Faso. I'm born and raised in England but live in Stockholm, and i go to university here.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My brothers have both done couchsurfing for a few years, however i am new to it myself! I have been on occasional meetups from CS Social groups.
I love the idea of couchsurfing and really want to get into it more!
Interests
Football is a major part of my life along with other sports such as tennis! I love to adventure, hike, go camping, and ski in the winter!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In Burkina Faso, I went with a group of friends to a place called Bazoulé. Whilst there, I was encouraged by a local with nothing other than a stick that, if he could lure an adult crocodile with a chicken, I could sit on it. So i sat on a fully grown croc, and then my other friend invited me to his rugby team's training session (the national champions of Burkina). Being British, I am okay at rugby; by the end of the session, the team wanted me to play for the Burkina Faso national team in an away game in Nigeria(unfortunately I couldn't because my work restricted me leaving the country!).
So yeah, I sat on a crocodile and got called up to the Burkina Faso national rugby team on the same day.
Teach, Learn, Share
Languages and experiences are my main 2! I love to learn languages and can help others too. And as for sharing experiences, i think everyone loves that!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I guess the best thing to share is an experience! I love to listen to other people's experiences and share my own.
