Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travel South America - Learn Spanish meet the Locals
ABOUT ME
After becoming bored with work and the cold of London I have decided to travel Central / South America. I have wanted to learn Spanish for a while and want to experience the cultures and people fully. I am inquisitive and always want to learn, be it history, language, culture, food or drink. I am easy going, very chilled out and enjoy a party.....
PHILOSOPHY
How can you have an opinion on something until you have tried it??? The more people you meet the broader your life will be.....If you read a thousand books you can live a thousand lives
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I am new to Couchsurfing but have many friends who surf and/or host. All have had great experiences and stories. I have met loads of great people through my friends and want to begin the experience myself. When I get home my couch will be open
Interests
I love the sun.....I like football, I enjoy a drink. Surprisingly I combine these with a love of learning and I read voraciously. I like to see culture and history and want to experience these in South America from the inside

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I once saw the sunrise over Masada, a desert fortress near the Dead Sea, a painful hike but when the sun came up over the horizon I was energised enough to then complete the run down the Snake Path.
