CURRENT MISSION

To go backpacking Europe this summer

ABOUT ME

I believe I'm a kind and helpful person, I hope I come across that way at least. I suppose I can be quite shy when I first meet people but I am trying to become a more open, sociable person. I've been a vegetarian for 4 years now and am passionate about animal welfare issues. At the moment I am studying English Lit. and Film at university, before that I used to work as a games tester and translator.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately I don't have a couch as I live in a small bedsit but I would love to meet up with people visiting London and show them around.

Interests

I have just started learning the bass, I'm still pretty awful though. I love listening to music, reading and films. In the summer I like to go to the park or to the beach to get a break from the city, but I really enjoy living in London as there are so many galleries, theatres and other interesting things to do.
