About Me

I'm a 25 year old Brit living in London, working as a digital designer by day and playing in a rock band by night. I love exploring the outdoors, sport and art and am always looking for new places and new people to meet. I am currently trying to master Spanish too!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to explore new cities and countries, and the best experiences I've had have been when I've met local people. It's the people that make a place, and I'm couchsurfing will put me in touch with fun people who can show me why their country is so great!

Interests

Music - I play in a band and love all types of music (particularly rock and electro)

Skiing - I lived in Canada for 6 months, gotta love the snow there!

Cycling - I raced BMX bikes for 10 years and I now love mountain biking just as much

Travelling - I've been to Northern and Southern America but not seen as much of Europe, it's right in my back yard so I want to change that!

A good drink - I love a good beer and make a pretty mean mojito

Music, Movies, and Books

I love rock and heavy metal but am also just as happy to listen to some Jack Johnson or The beatles.

I am a comedy lover and so any comedy, new or old goes down well. I like nothing more than to go to the cinema with some friends and just relax.

I am a big sport fan, both playing and talking about it. In particular I love football, tennis and cycling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been on a 3 week safari to South Africa where I saw all of the big 5. We got charged by an elephant, had a leopard walk under our truck and ate Zebra and Hippo with a witch doctor and her tribe!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to teach people new things on guitar. I also love to share my experiences with people so they can get the most when they visit.

I love to meet people who can show me something about a place that I would never have found on my own. Take me to a party and we'll be great friends!

I'm trying to learn Spanish at the moment so any chance to practice that is also welcomed

What I Can Share with Hosts

I often travel with my band mate and we would like nothing more than to play a show for you and your friends. So far we've played at a midsummer party in Finland, at a hostel in Barcelona, all over England, America and France and would love to play to new people.

We play rock music but when we travel we just bring our acoustic guitars so we play more mellow stuff. Perfect for a party or just in your front room.
