Overview
About Me
I'm a 34 year old PhD student from London, studying international politics and Latin American history.
I'm a laid back guy who loves to meet new people, see new places and soak up as much of the vibes of wherever I am.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm currently travelling through Venezuela doing research. I've been to Venezuela twice before and it always draws me back: the warm people, beautiful weather.. and the jugo!
I'll be in Venezuela until July, and hoping to return next year. In the meantime, I'll be passing through this beautiful country, and hope to be able to share a few stories, beers and laughs with people along the way.

Music, movies, exploring new places, and of course laying in the sun with a Cuba libre in my hand.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Pretty much any rock band from the 90s; + Mos Def, MF Doom, The Roots, ... and drum and bass
Movies: Basically any film by Stanley Kubrick, but also love Will Farrell (Anchorman, Casa de Mi Padre), Ben Stiller (Zoolander, Tropic Thunder) ... and David Lynch.
Books: Catch 22, Animal Farm, The Magical State, The Long Twentieth Century, Let Me Off At the Top!: My Classy Life and Other Musings.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I once successfully defeated a mongoose in a wrestling match (though it's possible that was a dream).
Teach, Learn, Share
Every encounter is an opportunity to both teach and learn.
What I Can Share with Hosts
My amazing vegetarian lasagna recipe (yes, it really is that good).
