About Me

On a one way trip to the other side of the world 🙌
Since leaving university I’ve worked for a UK based bank in London, trying to fit in as much travel as humanly possible around work and adult responsibility. At the start of 2019 my life changed when I had a ‘fuck it’ moment and applied for a New Zealand visa. Looking forward to a new life and the experiences that come with it whilst seeing as much of the world as I can!
Things I enjoy are:
- Sport (rugby, football, cricket, I’ll play and watch pretty much any sport going).
- Hiking and the outdoors in general
- Coffee, mainly due to the fact I literally can’t function without it now 😂
- Embracing new cultures and learning from people with a different outlook and experience of life

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

See the world, meet new people, make friends which last a lifetime. Simple as that.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies- Anything but horror, as soon as ghosts come in to it I’m out of there 😂
Music- Anything and everything, depending on what I’m doing and how I’m feeling. I probably have one of the most eclectic tastes in music that you’ll find.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lying on top of a Norwegian mountain while the Northern lights danced above my head was a huge bucket list moment! When I was in Lofoten (northern Norway) I spontaneously decided to stop at a mountain I was passing and climbed it just as the sun was setting. I set up my tent at the summit, got talking to two local girls who were also camping the night and we ate BBQ food and watched the most insane Northern Light display.

Teach, Learn, Share

I genuinely believe that travel makes you a better person. Trying to broaden my understanding of the world around me by seeing as many places and meeting as many people as possible in my lifetime.
In terms of what I can teach and share with you, well it depends what you want to know... I’ve had my share of interesting experiences and enjoy intellectual debate and conversation, so I’d like to think people I meet learn as much from me as I take from them!
