Обо мне
CURRENT MISSION
To get round the world, one step at a time.
ABOUT ME
I'm a recent graduate in History. Since I finished University I've been saving up to go on a trip of a lifetime - to the USA, which me and my oldest and best friend embark on in October 2010.
I was born and grew up in a town called Worcester, England.
I went to University in Manchester: one of the most exciting cities in the world.
I'm quite liberal, but not radical.
I come from a great family, and have one sister. My friends and I are a tight knit group and we go through the good and bad together, as do any friends.
I've seen a small bit of the world already. Inter-railing around Europe for a summer during Uni was a definite highlight - but having so many great cities an hour's flight away means that we see as much of our continent as we possibly can, at any opportunity.
This has led from caviar at the Ritz, to swigging wine on the canals of Venice, to snowfights in Munich.
North America is the next step!
PHILOSOPHY
I've struggled with this question a bit...
My personal philosophy is to make me, and the people around me feel content. I'll try my hardest to do this by travelling, working, and laughing.
I always make sure I have something to look forward to. I believe this is the key to happiness....
Что привело меня на Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm happy to host, surf, meet up, give advice, anything! It all contributes and if it means seeing and knowing a bit more about the world then it can't be bad.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Only 'advisor' role so far, but soon embarking on a trip around the USA and have our first host lined up.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией
I'd love to teach to play the guitar. I'm also a qualified football (soccer) coach!
If anyone can tell me anything historical about where they live, I'd love to learn. I'm especially interested in discovering how their city functions as an entity! I'd also love to improve my French, or learn German or Spanish.
