Hey, I'm a 20y/o student, I'm in my final year at uni studying English and American Lit. I've just come back (this summer) from a year abroad on the west coast of the US; I've also had limited travel in Europe (my brother lives in Berlin). I'm trying to explore a few more countries before I have to grow up and get a job, or something.

I'm from a relatively awful little town near Manchester, so I just tend to say I'm from Manchester - you probably wouldn't know from listening to me as my accent is a confusing mix of influences. Although I can be a little awkward I am mostly a very good talker and I'm happy to listen to stories too. Obviously due to my subject I'm very into books, but my favourite recommendations are for music as I'm pretty limited in my knowledge of that.

I've put I'm trying to learn Spanish on my profile, because I am, but I'll probably be very bad at speaking it forever, so please don't expect much from me.

Thanks for reading!

p.s. I do smoke so if that's a problem then I understand, if not I'm still gonna check about 20 times if it's okay if I have a cigarette. Also I am a vegetarian but I'm very polite about it, I just might be slightly picky about food places if you recommend any. Apart from that I will eat pretty much anything so if you know a good restaurant/cafe/whatever please let me know.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I need a place to sleep!

Mainly. My friend recommended this to me as a good, free way to meet people and to not have to rely on expensive hotels (or hostels, which can also be pretty expensive).

Also my weird accent.
