I'm a medical student who loves to travel. I've travelled around the major cities of Europe as well as India, Central America and southeast Asia. I like trying and cooking new food, martial arts, football, snowboarding and exploring new cities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing forms friendships and teaches about cultures in a way no other accommodation can. I want to travel all over the world and I would rather spend the money I save on activities and sports rather than expensive accommodation. I also think that a locals knowledge beats the tour guide every time.

Interests

I like to try new things, especially sports. I like playing racquet sports and football with friends. Martial arts is a passion and I would say football is my favourite to watch. One of the main reasons I travel is to try different foods so I'm always down to cook or eat out.

• italian food
• japanese food
• mexican food
• video games
• reading
• team sports
• combat sports
• soccer
• karate
• snorkelling

Music, Movies, and Books

Comedy film: The Hangover
Overall film: Shawshank Redemption
I'm not a film snob so chances are I will enjoy watching your favourite film too.

Music: I can get along with any music but I really like Ludovico Einaudi

Books: Misery, Great Gatsby, Inferno and all thriller/suspense books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 16 I competed in the karate world championships near Pisa in Italy, representing England. I also ate a two foot long naan bread on my own. I know which one I'm more proud of...

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to learn any language that I can, even if it's just so I'm less ignorant to locals, and I can help teach english to anyone who needs help. I can give some basic karate lessons and I would love to learn whatever hobby my host has.
I would like to learn to cook local dishes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Sport enthusiasm- I can get excited over any sport as long as I know the rules.
Food love- I can eat and endless amount of food and can make anyone feel proud of their cooking.
Being a medic in London gives you some pretty interesting stories if you aren't squeamish..
