hello I live in London with my girlfriend Hat, but originally I'm from New Zealand - this will be my second year living in London.

I'm new to using this site, so I'm hoping it will bring me some good experiences! I don't own a couch to offer, but people up for sleeping on a rug are welcome.

Please note though that because of work I can only host on weekends!!

I've traveled all my life so I'm not very good at staying in one place very long... I like to meet people who have stories and experiences to share, and I like talking to people who can tell me about new and interesting things.

SORRY IF I DON'T REPLY PERSONALLY TO ALL REQUESTS
Living in London I get a LOT of people asking to stay, I try and reply to them all but sometimes I can't possibly keep up!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel as much as I can and I think this is a really nice way to travel, to meet people and to embrace the idea that people all around the world can swap stories and help each other out.

And what better way to discover a country than stay with the locals? :D

Interests

I like art, books and music. I like to write and draw, and I draw my own comics quite often. I play the piano a little bit too. I like to learn about really strange and varied topics. I also really like cooking - my ol' Grandpa taught me all his family recipes, so I promise to cook proper Bangladeshi food for anyone who lets me stay! ;)
