ABOUT ME

All about me..? Hmm...

I'm Matt, 28, British. I love music and travel; so much so I ditched an office job a few years ago to study sound engineering and travel a bit. I'm now back in London and working in admin job to get some coin back together and bail off to The States for the first time.

I love London and I will be sad to say goodbye to the city and all the wonderful people I have made friends with here but I am excited to meet new people. Oh, and I'm single and looking :)

PHILOSOPHY

I'm certainly left of centre but have no religion as such and I don't vote in politics. I do believe in frequencies and energies we only understand a tiny bit about. A conversation to be continued :)

"Give peace a chance"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a very talkative person who loves meeting new people. I can't host anyone because I am travelling and I am not just looking for somewhere to stay. I want to meet new people :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I have had one couchsurfing experience. We met a cool German guy in Budapest who hooked us up with somewhere to stay in Vienna. The Austrian guy trusted us with his front door key which was amazing. We thanked our guest with a Wiener Schnitzel and some beers!

Interests

Music is my passion and I DJ so I spend a lot of time playing music. I play mainly Deep House and slow grooves but have a very eclectic taste. Anything from House to Rock n Rock, Folk to Trip Hop. I'm not a fan of mainstream chart music and I don't have a TV but I watch stuff like documentaries, comedy and the odd film.

Oh, I sing too so if you play an instrument we could jam. I sing things like The Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, Neil Young etc.

I love learning and talking about world affairs past and present and when I'm not being a geek I love to party! London is an awesome city to go out and I do love a good party!
