Overview
About Me
I am extremely passionate about the outdoors, and the environment is something that occupies a large portion of my life.
I am studying Environmental Management at university, in the hope to be able to help manage the more at risk habitats, and conserve the rarer species for future generations.
I am always looking for my next adventure, be it a mountain, river, or something smaller or bigger. I am always up for trying something new and exciting.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Looking to meet new people, and new experiences. I would love to travel the world, experience new cultures and meet new people. I would like to see more of the world, and more of the species and environments I am learning about in the lecture halls at university.
Interests
Im a keen adventurer, i love most things outdoors. I love to wildcamp, go for long hikes, and climb big mountains.
Rock climbing and mountaineering are my main passions, I have been doing them for nearly 10 years, although only recently i have been able to do them enough to improve.
I also enjoy kayaking, whether its playing canoe polo with my team on a flat lake, or flying down waterfalls and grade 3 rapids.
I am also a keen member of the Scout movement. I have been a scout since i was 6 years old, and I am keen to continue as a leader, to pass on the skills and experiences I have gained with the new generation, and teach them that they dont need modern technology to have a good time.

Music, Movies, and Books
I read anything that isnt a lovey dovey book, but I have recently read the Jack Reacher series of books, and they are my favourite at the moment, however they ruined it with the film!!
Mainly like action films, or mystical.
I like all music except heavy rock.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I have so many experiences, that its hard to choose one!! however i think the day I summited my first mountain, or when I finally managed to break into the E grades trad climbing.
