Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have couchsurfed for almost a year now and am happy to host, surf and meet as many interesting people as possible!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had mostly excellent Couch Surfing experiences in Europe and my favourite experience so far was learning massage techniques in the gorgeous South of France.

Interests

I am a frantic traveller- addicted to life out of a backpack!

I study Human, Social and Political Sciences at the University of Cambridge and I am fascinated by how we have developed as a species, especially in regards to society and politics, and have a keen interest in UK and European politics.

But I'm not too boring I promise! I review music (albums and concerts) and films and hope to pursue a career in journalism after university.

I also write poetry and perform spoken word, volunteer for different NGOs and organise youth engagement projects in my hometown of Cardiff, Wales.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently did a sponsored skydive which meant jumping out of a plane at 12000ft in the air over the green fields of Oxfordshire, England. An amazing experience that will not be forgotten....

Teach, Learn, Share

Languages, music and cooking. Surely three key ingredients to the human experience.

The more we share, the better we understand.
