In the words of Bilbo Baggins “I’m going on an adventure”. I’m an active and adventurous person. I love going to new places, meeting new people and experiencing new and interesting things and having a good crack while doing it. I’m currently a Geography teacher in the sunny Bradford with a charity called TeachFirst thats trying to end the social inequality of education across the UK. I love all sport and anything outdoors. Consider myself a friendly and caring person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It’s the best way to explore cheaply, share experiences and meet new people that have lived in the area and know it well
