CURRENT MISSION

Getting to know the world, one person at a time.

ABOUT ME

After graduating from Architecture school I worked, saved up, then went on a six month trip in Central and South America, from which I have recently returned.

My family is originally from Glasgow, however we have travelled extensively and at the age of 24 I have lived in seven countries and visited thirty seven. I have therefore always been passionate about travel.

My ambition in life is to become an expert in the field of "green" architecture, and to apply this expertise to architectural solutions in developing countries...

In the process, I am getting to know the world, one person at a time!

PHILOSOPHY

BE the change you want to see in the world.

Learn by doing.

So far I have only surfed, but Im looking forward to when Im in a position to host in the future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed in both Buenos Aires and Rio De Janeiro. In both cases the experience helped me get to know the place in a short time, and Im looking forward to couchsurfing again in the future.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A truly unforgettable moment was on my 22nd birthday, which I spent on Maggie Island, Australia. As a birthday treat I went out jet skiing with a few people that I had met travelling. After an amazing hour the instructor signalled us to come together and switch off the engines to have a recap before heading in. Just as I came to a stop, a whale came up about 10m away, then ducked underneath us, came up on the other side and we watched it swim away into the distance. A memory that will stay with me forever!
