Learn, discover, make friends and enjoy life! I’m always looking to make deeper connections with life around me. I travelled for a year with almost no money by hitchhiking over 5000km and working many different jobs. By doing this I met the most amazing people, gained tonnes of experiences and really altered my mindset on life. I then returned to the UK to begin my studies in Architecture and urban planning which I have recently graduated in, and now want to return to the free spirit mindset and escape the ills of a fast paced, capitalist society.

My vision is to experience more of life’s riches and become more educated in many disciplines through connecting with and learning from others. I want to learn how to practice Architecture in a way that regenerates all life within and around it, as well as nourish the soul. Through using local & natural resources, understanding sacred/ancient philosophy and geometry, natural processes/systems, sustainable lifestyles, biomimicry, anthropology and sociology and much more… I will one day be in a position to create my own utopia, where you will always have a place to stay!

I enjoy exchanging stories with others, learning about their experiences and having deep, meaningful conversations. Of course I don't expect something for nothing. Couchsurfing is a dance between two complete strangers, with energy and information flowing in both ways. Although I will help out wherever I can anyway, I am open to a workaway style exchange where I can help you with projects in return for staying for a longer period of time. Please let me know if this idea interests you and we can make an arrangement which can benefit both of us!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to support you on travels as others did for me when I was, and also be inspired to quit my job and leave again !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiked across the Atlantic

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to learn about you! I want to learn anything you have to offer whether it be your story, philosophies, language, a new recipe etc.. Everyone knows something you don't.
And I can teach some drums or guitar, some climbing tips, and with design projects (unless you’re better than me! Then can I have some lessons?😆), language exchange

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good company, good conversations, help with any projects going on, vegetarian/vegan food, acoustic jams
I don't expect something for nothing!
