CURRENT MISSION

To have friends scattered all over the world and have a load of fun!

ABOUT ME

I am a third year medical student at Edinburgh University looking to host or travel the world. Easy going and easy to talk to, I am currently based in Edinburgh for most of the year in a flat with lots of space. While I seem like a real city kid, enjoying most things from art, museums, theatre, sport, music to bars/pubs/clubs. I really love live music. I also love hillwalking, skiing, and horse riding.

I am really interested in social justice and politics and environmental issues (which makes me feel really guilty if I am CSing and have to fly somewhere!)

Also, I am usually very busy, so it would be best if you send me a request 4/5 days in advance as I am not really able to plan much ahead of that with work, university, and other commitments! More than a week ahead and I probably won't be able to host :(

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So hopefully I can show you some interesting places in Edinburgh, take you to places other tourists don't get to see and hopefully make good friends in the process. I also hope to use couchsurfing to cut the costs of my own travels, but more importantly to make friends, to explore your city with someone who knows it best and have a load of fun with you in the process!!

Interests

I enjoy singing, travelling and making new friends! I sing in a choir, and I horseride, and I love music.

I love getting involved in Student activism and campaigning for a fairer and more equal society.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to share with you places in Edinburgh which tourists can't find for themselves, whether that is cafes, bookshops, bars, restaurants, nightlife, alleyways and hidden rivers and villages. Showing you places tourists can't find by themselves - why I love couchsurfing!
