About Me

ABOUT ME

I live in London working part time as a bookseller and sporadically as a freelance photographer's assistant. In September I will be moving to Peru for a while to learn Spanish.

I love: Travelling, stretching, fun jumpers, mullets, the colour green, face painting & lions.

I hate: Salvador Dali, tomatoes...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was introduced to couch sufing through my friend Rachel when we lived together in Argentina for five weeks. Through it I made some incredible friends and I believe it definitely enhanced my experience of Buenos Aires. I'm excited to meet new people through this medium and particularly be able to show travellers a side of London that they might miss out on if they didn't know a local.

Interests

travelling, eating, photography, reading, watching movies, discovering new kinds of music, poetry, art, puns, learning spanish, people watching, gesticulating, strecthing, dancing...
