CURRENT MISSION

To learn as much about life as I can through other cultures.
ABOUT ME

I'm studying for a masters in International Journalism, picking up freelance gigs along the way (www.ourmancincopacabana.com - my profile site). I've lived in Brazil and Spain. I think I'm a friendly chap who enjoys showing visitors around my home city of Manchester, and learning about other cultures through travel and making friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Here's a little about Manchester....

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to read a lot, particularly novels and history. Manchester is a great city for music, I like to see electronic and indie acts in concert.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Amazing things I have seen/done travelling:

The warmth of the Brazilian people.
The vitality of the Spanish.
The beautiful streets of Sevilla.
The lively streets of Barcelona.
The beaches of Florianópolis.
The concrete jungle of Sao Paulo.
To have surfed (on a board not a couch) in three different continents and still be unable to stand up!
Carnaval
Coming back home.
