About Me

ABOUT ME

I am a sociable and open-minded male from Manchester UK who, like everyone else here, can't stop traveling or experiencing new cultures. I am still somehow managing to budget travel more often than I should.

I enjoy great conversations, meeting new people, pushing my boundaries and learning from different cultures or experiences. Generally I just like to explore the world and have my perceptions altered.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been CouchSurfing down the West Coast of USA and want to give what I can back to the community. Although I am not yet in a position to host others, I am willing to meet others and help them experience the UK.

Its such a serendipitous community and everybody has an interesting tale to tell. It's one way to strengthen my faith in humanity when most media forms perpetually reinforce negative images.
