关于我

CURRENT MISSION To accomplish a list of experiences and memories so vast that I can look back on my life and think, "I've done everything!"

ABOUT ME

I am just about to begin my third trip RTW! Hope to meet as many of you as I can!

Originally from London, England and been home since March 2015 after my 2nd RTW trip. Been using the site since 2012 and met a lot of good people in the US, Middle East, Asia and South America. Surfed quite a bit while travelling and hosted while living in Melbourne and a lot whilst being back in London.

I'm up for hosting and meeting anyone on here and always on the lookout for cool people to meet when I do my own trips...... I am a very easy going host and a very respectful and self sufficient guest. Generally speaking I host/surf to meet good people and would always hope to be able to hang out/socialise with my guests. However if you're just looking for a quick, easy, place to crash then I won't hold it against you. London accommodation is pricey these days!!

A few facts, thoughts, opinions about me are listed below to help you decide if you'd like to meet/surf/host with me!

> My perfect day consists of eating my favourite foods, learning or seeing something new, watching my team win at football, before hanging out with people who have a close to the bone sense of humour, bold conversation and a come-what-may attitude and drinking till we drop.

> I think people are the most interesting thing in the world and a persons story rarely bores me.

> I find most things funny and am practically impossible to offend.

> I am most likely the best player in the world at FIFA on the PlayStation. I also like to think this is true of chess, unfortunately it's not.

> Sleep is the biggest waste of life. As of yet I haven't been able to conquer its necessity.

> Meat, potatoes, bread, cheese and chocolate comprise 90% of my diet. Its rare for me to experiment with food. To make up for this self confessed ignorance, I will consume any liquid you put in front of me.

> Outside of London, my favourite cities are Tokyo, Pristina, Berlin and New York. Colombia, Japan and Israel are the best places I've backpacked.

> I suffer hugely from FOMO (Fear of missing out) Therefore I can be convinced to do most things regardless of how random or absurd that may be.

> I have gargled Dead Sea water. I will not be doing

> My bucket list is getting longer, not shorter. I may runout of time before completing it.

> I am petrified of dying. It seems incredibly boring.

PHILOSOPHY

> Life is a daily choice whether to serve the angels or the demons!

> You can't sesh!

> Anytime you're tired, don't be!

> Live for the moment

> If youre gonna be a bear, be a grizzly

> Piece of mind is priceless

> Everyday is a school day

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Started off meeting people whilst travelling, then graduated to surfing and now I host constantly in London. My studio looks like a mini refugee camp most days :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Been hosted as well as met up with people in Israel, the United States, South Korea and Japan. Hosted a few people from different places while living in Melbourne and around 40 since being back in London. Haven't met a bad person yet.
